Air Condition Blowing Warm (intermittently)

simpleM3 · 09-08-2021, 08:54 PM

AC seems to blow warm on really hot/humid days. I took it to the dealer to have it inspected and was told there are no issues. I specifically asked them to inspect the condenser given how they commonly fail, but that also passed whatever test they performed.

I need to challenge the results because somethings definitely not functioning properly or failing. Anyone one else experience this issue?

For me they didn't find anything with the leak test. They had to put in the UV dye and I drove it around for a few days.

Condenser, a known weak point on the F10s.

Tive esse defeito, resolvido com uma recarga de gás refrigerante.

I'm very late to this post but thought I'd give it a shot because I've had this same exact issue

For me AC was blowing warm because I had changed my head unit screen to a CarPlay one and one of the wires wasn't properly latched into place so the entire AC unit was freaking out, just putting this out there for anyone who might run into this issue

The blue connection that attaches onto the main board of the volume buttion AC controls etc
