AC not cold.

Hey guys, I'm not sure if its my EURO Climatronic thats F-ing up, but my AC is not cold.

I put it down on "LO" or 59deg F and the ac is not freezing cold... I left the car running for 15 mins and the AC on like 1/2 blasting air, but its still not "cold" any idea wats going on!?

I had that & the Stealership recharged the refridgerant for me with a dye added to detect any leaks. Been a year now & still works perfectly.

Reasons could be:
1. Dirty AC filter
2. Refrigerant leak in the system
3. Faulty compressor
4. Faulty evaporator
5. Faulty receiver dryer
6. Faulty temperature sensors
The dealer should be able to find the cause, unless they think your AC temp is "normal".

Be careful if you take it to dealer with that climatronic... they might blame it on you and charge you.
