A/C is one of the marvels of modern cars. Using the physical and chemical properties of refrigerant, your A/C provides cool, dry air for your cabin using only a little of the torque your engine outputs. To keep your A/C working for you, we provide certified Volkswagen A/C service and repair at Jim Wynn Volkswagen. We’d love to help you either restore or maintain your flow of cool air through all sorts of weather at our state-of-the-art service department.
Repairing a non-functioning A/C requires testing the refrigerant pressure, inspecting the system for leaks, and checking the functionality of the condenser and the compressor. Once we’ve identified the problem, we can replace those parts that contributed to the problem with genuine Volkswagen parts, and you’ll have your air back. Servicing A/C involves lubricating the compressor, checking the serpentine belt, and making sure there aren’t any slow leaks that could lead to future A/C failure.
Refrigerant is a gaseous substance that can easily be compressed into a liquid, generating heat. Your compressor does this in your A/C, and the hot fluid is then cooled (but still kept under pressure) in the condenser, and then it’s released into a non-pressurized chamber. As the liquid becomes a gas, it retrieves energy in the form of heat, making the chamber and surrounding air much colder. This air can be blown through your vents, and the refrigerant can be re-used in the compressor to start the process over again.
Our technicians are more than mechanics because of their high levels of training and experience in automotive repair, and they use their skills to your benefit. A/C is a complex system, but our experts are up to the challenge no matter what’s going on. Our technicians will provide your car with attention to detail and high-quality work levels to preserve or restore your A/C’s capacities, whether it’s repair or service.
