Why Is My Car's AC Blowing Hot on One Side?

The Problem

The vehicle's air conditioning system was blowing hot air, initially starting on one side, despite having the refrigerant refilled.

What We Found

The technician found that the system had no refrigerant and required further investigation for potential leaks.

The Fix

The team at our Winter Haven shop connected AC equipment, evacuated the system to remove contaminants, and verified system pressures and refrigerant levels. They charged the AC system with the correct amount of refrigerant and oil, added a UV dye for leak detection, and replaced the low side Schrader valve.

The Result

The AC system was restored to proper functionality, blowing cold air again.

Pro Tip

If your AC starts blowing warm air, it might be due to a refrigerant leak. Adding UV dye can help locate leaks early, preventing costly repairs down the line.

Coolant Leak Leading to Engine Overheating

The Problem

The vehicle owner noticed a coolant leak, which could lead to engine overheating if not addressed.

What We Found

The technician identified that the water pump was the source of the coolant leak.

The Fix

The team at our Winter Haven shop performed a complete coolant system flush using the BG machine to remove all old fluids. They then replaced the faulty water pump and refilled the system with new coolant to ensure optimal performance.

The Result

The vehicle was restored to proper working condition, eliminating the coolant leak and preventing potential overheating issues.

Pro Tip

A coolant leak often indicates a failing component like a water pump. Addressing leaks early can prevent engine overheating and costly repairs down the line.

Why Is My Car Rejecting Gas at the Pump?

The Problem

What We Found

The technician conducted a smoke machine emissions test and advised that there was an issue with the emissions components.

The Fix

The Result

After the repair, the vehicle was able to accept fuel properly without any issues.

Pro Tip

If your car is rejecting gas at the pump, it might be a sign of a clogged or faulty evaporation control canister. Addressing it promptly can prevent further emissions issues and improve fuel efficiency.

Pro Tip

FAQ

Auto Repair in Winter Haven: questions answered

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Winter Haven.

Do I need an appointment just to have something looked at?

It helps, and it's the fastest way to get on a lift. Call the shop closest to you and tell us what you're hearing or seeing, and we'll get you a time. If the car isn't safe to drive, say so on the phone and we'll work around it.

Do you work on my make and model?

Almost certainly. Our ASE certified technicians work on domestic, Asian, and European cars and light trucks every day, gas and diesel. If something needs a dealer-only tool or procedure we don't have, we'll tell you up front instead of taking your money and finding out later.

Is the 36 month, 36,000 mile warranty really good anywhere?

Yes. It's a nationwide warranty, not a come-back-to-us warranty. If a covered repair gives you trouble while you're traveling, it's honored at participating shops around the country. Keep your paperwork or just call us and we'll help you sort it out from here.

How do estimates and approvals work?

You get the inspection results with photos before you get a number, so you can see what we're talking about. Then we price the work and you approve what you want done, item by item. If we open something up and find more than we expected, the work stops and we call you before anything else happens.

Can I bring you a diagnosis another shop already gave me?

Sure, and bring the paperwork. We'll take it seriously, but we'll still verify it ourselves before we sell you a repair based on it. Sometimes it confirms exactly what they found, and sometimes it saves you from replacing a part that wasn't the problem.
