A/C Repair Service for Your Renault Alliance

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Renault Alliance?" Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Renault vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1987 Renault. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Renault Alliance

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1987 Renault Alliance’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Renault Alliance A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

A/C Recharge for Renault Alliance

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1987 Renault Alliance, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Renault's recommendations. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1987 Renault Alliance A/C recharges.

Common Renault Alliance A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Renault Alliance A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1987 Renault Alliance? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Alliance — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 1987 Renault Alliance A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Alliance air conditioning colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my Alliance A/C blowing hot air? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Alliance’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Alliance A/C use gas? While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your Alliance.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my Alliance smells like vinegar? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your Alliance creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Alliance’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Alliance’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
