As summer approaches and temperatures start to soar, there are few things more miserable than dealing with a broken air conditioning system or overheating engine when you're out on the road. Whether you're planning an epic summer road trip or just running daily errands around El Cajon, you'll want to make sure your vehicle's A/C and cooling systems are in tip-top shape before the hot weather hits.
That's why the ASE-certified technicians at Auto Tech Automotive Repair recommend getting your vehicle's climate control and cooling systems inspected and serviced now to avoid the agony of heatstroke later. Here's a quick overview of the types of services we provide to keep you comfortably cool all summer long:
Auto Air Conditioning System Services
- A/C Performance Check - Our technicians will thoroughly inspect every component of your vehicle's A/C system to identify any potential issues and get cool air blowing through the vents again.
- A/C Refrigerant Recharge - If your system is low on refrigerant, simply recharging it can drastically improve cooling performance. We'll ensure the proper refrigerant level and make any necessary repairs.
- Condenser Inspection/Cleaning - The A/C condenser is responsible for expelling hot air from the system. We'll clean off any built-up debris to maximize airflow.
- Hose & Component Inspection - Cracked or damaged hoses and other A/C components will be inspected and replaced if needed to prevent further refrigerant leaks.
Don't get caught sweating it out in traffic this summer! Schedule an A/C system performance check to make sure you stay comfortably cool no matter how high the temperatures rise.
Cooling System Services
While the A/C system keeps the cabin cool and comfortable, your vehicle's cooling system is what keeps the engine's temperature regulated and prevents overheating. Crucial components like the radiator, water pump, thermostat, and hoses all need to be in good working order. Hot summer temperatures can really push these parts to their limits.
That's why Auto Tech also offers comprehensive cooling system services, including:
- Radiator Flush & Fill - Over time, radiators can get clogged with built-up dirt, rust, and sediment deposits that restrict coolant flow and impact cooling efficiency. We'll completely flush out the old coolant and refill it with the correct type for your vehicle.
- Cooling System Pressure Test - Using specialized equipment, we'll pressure test the entire cooling system to identify any leaks in the radiator, water pump, hoses, or other components before a bigger problem occurs.
- Thermostat Replacement - Is your engine taking too long to warm up or overheating quickly? You may have a stuck thermostat that needs replacement.
- Water Pump Inspection/Replacement - The water pump keeps coolant circulating through the engine. We'll inspect it for any issues and replace it if it's leaking or failing.
- Radiator & Hose Inspection/Replacement - Cracked or deteriorated radiator hoses and leaky radiators will be replaced to restore full cooling capacity.
