A/C Service for Subaru XV Crosstrek

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Subaru XV Crosstrek?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know Subaru vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2015 Subaru A/C systems. Steer your Subaru XV Crosstrek to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). 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 Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

XV Crosstrek A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Then, they’ll use Subaru’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re good to go. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C recharges.

Common Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Typical A/C problems also 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 your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. 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 XV Crosstrek — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C Systems

  • How can I make my XV Crosstrek air conditioner 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 XV Crosstrek A/C? An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? 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 XV Crosstrek’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  •  Does running the A/C in my XV Crosstrek use gasoline?  The air conditioning system in your XV Crosstrek 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.
  • What can cause the A/C in my XV Crosstrek to smell like vinegar? It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your XV Crosstrek to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my XV Crosstrek’s A/C only work when the car is moving? Damaged or worn components in your XV Crosstrek’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
