It's that time of year when things are starting to heat up. That means you may get in your car, flip the air conditioner on, and plan to be cool by the time you reach the interstate. However, after a few minutes you notice you are still sweating, so you turn up the fan speed only to realize there's warm air coming from your car's A/C vents. Uh, oh. Now what?
Your unit could need a simple recharge of its freon, but it may require a repair like the one I performed on a BMW this past week. The compressor, drying unit, and hose had to be replaced. The old refrigerant had to be vacuumed out, filtered through a machine, and returned to the system along with some new refrigerant.
Only a certified mechanic should work on your car's air conditioning. Over charging the system can damage it; under charging means it will not cool sufficiently. Leaks or problems need to be found and repaired so the A/C system will last longer. Otherwise, you may face a more expensive repair later.

I'd definitely agree with consulting a mechanic with any air conditioning problems. I had a problem not so long ago with my air conditioning and even though I'm usually a DIY type, I ended up finding a local garage. It was then when I discovered I'd got a broken pipe and if I'd attempted to fix it myself, I could have made things worse.
