Automotive Tips from Gilmore's Auto Service: Air Conditioning ? Common Problem

Posted July 17, 2022 9:37 AM

Your auto air conditioning system cools and conditions the air in your passenger compartment when you are driving around Walnut Creek. It also removes moisture from the air to keep your windows from fogging up.

A common A/C problem for Walnut Creek drivers that visit Gilmore's Auto Service is contaminated refrigerant (the gas that cools the air). The inside of the A/C hoses deteriorates over time and tiny fragments of rubber clog passages. This makes the system less efficient and overworks various components.

Leaks can develop at seals and gaskets and may reduce the amount of refrigerant, causing the system to work too hard to compensate. Dirty components can have the same consequences.

Ask your Gilmore's Auto Service service advisor for an air conditioning system inspection to make sure everything is up to spec.

I own a 2006 Ford Expedition that required a new driver’s seat motor system, allowing the seat to move forward and recline. I bought a used one from EBay Motors. But I needed to get someone to install. Josh and two other mechanics installed the system. Not sure if many auto shops would have attempted. Had some doubts whether it would work - a combination of system I bought and / or installing it properly. Success. Took almost three hours, with three mechanics help. Very pleased.

I replaced here a timing belt + water pump, break fluid and transmission fluid on my Acura TLX. Great service and great prices! It was twice cheaper than official dealers estimated for me.
