A/C Service for Renault LeCar

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. “Who can fix my Renault LeCar A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Renault vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1983 Renault LeCar A/C systems. Steer your Renault LeCar to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1983 Renault LeCar A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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. A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Renault LeCar A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Recharge the A/C in Your LeCar

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1983 Renault LeCar, 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. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Renault guidelines. 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 1983 Renault LeCar A/C recharges.

Common Renault LeCar A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Renault LeCar A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 1983 Renault LeCar? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your LeCar — without all the sweat puddles!

1983 Renault LeCar A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my LeCar air conditioning colder? Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why do I get hot air from my LeCar A/C? 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.
  • What can cause an A/C system 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 LeCar’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  •  Does the A/C in my LeCar use gas?  The air conditioning system in your LeCar does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • Why does my LeCar have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If the air conditioning in your LeCar smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my LeCar’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 LeCar’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
