A/C Service for Volkswagen Touareg

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. “Who can fix my Volkswagen Touareg A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Volkswagen vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2016 Volkswagen. Bring your Volkswagen Touareg to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2016 Volkswagen Touareg A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. If we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Volkswagen Touareg A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Touareg A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2016 Volkswagen Touareg, 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 Volkswagen'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 ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2016 Volkswagen Touareg A/C recharges.

Other Volkswagen Touareg A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Volkswagen Touareg 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. And smelly A/C in a 2016 Volkswagen Touareg? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Touareg’s A/C!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2016 Volkswagen Touareg A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Touareg 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 is my Touareg A/C blowing hot air? 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your Touareg's A/C system.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Touareg use gasoline? Your Touareg’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • Why does the A/C in my Touareg 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 Touareg to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Touareg’s A/C to work? Damaged or worn components in your Touareg’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.
