Thread: AC not very cold

Hmmm, mine is pretty cold. Do you have the auto climate control and have it set to "Lo"?

Our other car Hyundai Sonata has much more effective AC.

Anything the dealer can do the adjust the temp?

Thanks

Take it back to the dealer and ask them to purge and recharge the system and all will be good. I had the same problem. Works (brrr) great now.

mine doesn't get all that cold either... will they charge me to purge and recharge it?

Well so it happens I am a refrigerator tecnician, I would need to know first what would be the normal air exaust temp on a 100% working coupe. It should be arround 42F to 48F so if you have something thats on the 50's then you ned to get the re-purge indeed. Can anyone can pitch in with their a/c output temps?

Whoa I'm 62 and drift my cart in the parking lot. Toooo many old people in the store.
The purge and recharge are covered under warranty.

my friend told me to "break it in"? I thought it was stupid at the time, but now at 1000mi the A/C seems colder than before, so maybe he was right?

Eh sounds weird, but if its cold now then I guess thats all that matters!

I brought up the AC not being very cold when I went in for service and they said they did a full diagnostic and everything was running "normal". When I got the car back it was running cooler.... I think they might have added more freeon or whatever.

My A/C runs great, nice and cold and I live in Florida so its needs to stay that way.
