I am a new subscriber because I did change the compressor in my 2008 mazda NC miata.I researched yutube and your analysis is so accurate, same issues not cold on idle speed but cooler on driving speed.Changed the compressor and Bingo, very cold now even on idle 30 degrees now its freezing cold using ozone friendly natural gas refrigerant from eBay. And this also the first time I replaced compressor.The last time 10 years ago I was scammed by a Honda dealership here in Lancaster charged me $2300 for the same a.c. job on my honda civic and still did not do it right I have to return 2nd time for them to fix it and come to find out my evaporator is bad.What a bunch of Scammers in the service department.So I tried all DIY job on all my cars since then.
That’s exactly what’s going on with mine!!! Thanks. It slowly got worse over a period of a few weeks now nothing.
Very helpful. Had the same issue--temp fluctuating up and down as i drove and/or idled at lights. This was very helpful to understand the issue and confirm the diagnosis from the shop. Thank you!
The revving the engine info was GOLDEN. Thanks bro.
I knew mine was bad when it locked up and made one hell of a screeching sound and stalled the engine
Hope you got back on the road quick! Mine makes an awful noise so I don’t use it, I don’t need it freezing up and break my serpentine belt. 😬
You turn it off and the engine unstalls.
Good way to tell
@@namastesunshinecindy5566 you should replace it I paid under 150 to save a hellavaproblem

I'm sitting in my car thinking my compressor was bad so I looked it up here on youtube and I saw you vid and it looked like you were going to get straight to the point which you did and actually showed my exactly what I was just doing parked. My baby has the same symptoms.
So I think you for sharing that.
08 Rabbit 2.5
Reeds in the comp are allowing the high psi hot gas to return to the low side giving a high suction psi.
brother you helped me a lot! I was wondering why on regular idle my ac was sort of cutting off and only blew warm air, but when i'm cruising at 60/70 mph it would feel like ice just incredible. Thanks so much for this basic simple info. I'm off too change my AC compressor.
Did the new fix the problem?
Very helpful. This is the exact problem my compressor is doing. When foot on the gas the compressor starts to do its job. Thank you for this video.
Mine seized up on my 2013 F150 5.0 finally. Snapped the belt in the process. Luckily that belt only runs the ac system pulleys and the other belt runs the water pump and alternator so I can still drive it.
@Nimble KIllaI'm still driving mine just fine. I removed the a/c belt completely and just keep all my windows down when I'm driving for cooler air. Lol. Not wanting to spend $300+ for a new compressor kit at the moment.
Great information thanks alot same issue I'm having with my ac driving its cooling but not maximum and at idle I boil...
Hi can a bad ac compressor cause rough idle, misfires and poor engine performance also??
To my understanding, yes. Just ran into a misfire when the ac was running. Turned the car and ac off and let it sit for a couple minutes before going home for an hour drive. Ac wasn't running and we didn't run into any issues on the way home, check engine light even turned off when I started the car with no AC on
That’s exactly my problem. Standing still blows hot air but driving is ok. Could blow colder I’m sure. I suspected it’s the compressor and it seems I guessed right by your explanation.
Great video. Really liked the graphics of the compressor and of the AC tool. Thanks
My car sounds like the belt is bad or ac compressor is going bad! Its cool and stays cool just loud noise under hood like a bad belt or compressor going out
Joe Gandarilla ,if its the compressor you might stretch its life with an ounce or 2of the proper pag oil.
Now my AC turns on and listening fan turns on has a right amount of refrigerant but I still get warm air any ideas
What was it? Thermostat?
Sometimes a simple thing as compressor connecter can stop a compressor , I told mechanic can you check connecter, he said it is broken and fixed it and it worked
Well this sucks. I've NEVER used my ac in my 2016 colorado because I worked overnights never hot at night. Now I work during the day and ac would work once in a blue but stopped entirely for at least a year about a month ago it was working again for 2 days straight till I remote started the car with a quarter tank left... hot air immediately doesn't work now. Ac doesn't even kick on at all just blows air in if I use ac with air from outside its warm opposed to no ac and letting air blow in feels cool.
Is increasing strain on the engine(almost to the point it stalls)when the compressor kicks on a sign it's going bad. For some reason my car automatically kicks on the compressor(even when it's cold and the heat is on) when I turn on my front defroster,so it's not even running the ac,but still putting a noticeable amount of strain on the motor. I plan on keeping the car forever as it's 27yrs old and the model is becoming a more and more scarce,and it's something that's always happened so idk if it's normal,but it's more noticeable than on any other car I've ever had
The first video I watched was this one…immediately subscribed….Thank You
That is a killer diagram of the AC compressor
indEEd it is
Mine is turning but blowing hot air, also pulley is grinding. Never had one do that.
I also get a strange sound when i initially turn the ac on alongside not blowing as cold on idle. Cheers think you figured it out for me
I just installed a new air Conditioning system on a 2007 trailblazer I bought the kit from Napa it came with a new compressor and a little aluminum tank I forgot what it was called But we installed it on the car it came pre-charged with oil in the compressor and we actually dumped it out and added oil to it but the air worked amazing and I mean amazing would put frost on your windows for about two months and then three days ago we pull up to a red light and within 10 seconds the air went from freezing cold to hot. So I pop the hood and the compressor was not spinning. We checked the low pressure valve and it is working properly and the Freon levels are good. The only way the compressor will come back on is if you shut the car off and let it cool off for about an hour and when you start it back the compressor will run. And if you jump the relay with a wire the compressor will kick on and as soon as it kicks on you can take the wire out and put the relay back in and it will run for about 15 to 20 minutes again, But on a normal morning when you start the car the compressor will run for about 30 minutes sitting in the driveway in about 15 minutes if you’re driving it and then it will shut off and not come back on unless the car is cooled off. every mechanic shop I have spoke to has no clue why this does that. Do you think the new compressor is bad?
The problem am having with my ac is. Sometimes it get cold and get hot by it self and get cold and hot again. Is not stable at all. Just get hot and cold while driven
did you fix it?
That sounds like the orfice tube or expansion valve
Good Day Sir, every time I expose the car in the Sun for longer period of time, and decide to drive. The aircon cause a strange sound and not releasing the cold. What's the cause of that problem?
Mine never gets cold. It blows well but only warm air. The gauge says I have coolant. Should I change the compressor?
Yes that's what happened to me
check that your compressor clutch is going on and off..... go from there
Thank you ever so much for making and uploading this short yet very informative video loaded with just the right information ℹ needed right now.
If the pressure switch is faulty would the out cover plate still spin with the pully whether the air-con is on or off as I can't hear the compress clutch clicking?
I pulled a vacuum for 30min, added the recommended freon now it is whining badly and it actually slows down the car or robbed a lot of power when the compressor kicks in
My 2010 Camry has a knocking/rattling sound when compressor is on. Sound goes away when just the blower on. Ac is ice cold.
I was told compressor and ridiculous price, but after a few videos I'm wondering if it is just a pulley or clutch assembly? Thoughts?
I just received a recall notice and warranty extension from Honda re: AC compressor shaft seal leak. Did you get a notice as well? It is dated June 2023. Covers 2016-2021 Civics and 2017-2022 CRVs for original owner and any subsequent owners.
suction line blowing out after two replacements. rubber hose with crimp on connectors.
Your air conditioning normally gets alttle colder if you're at a higher RPM .. Just like at a higher RPM your voltage goes up...My air conditioning is always cold..
Was just wondering if the ac compressor can cause the car to sound like it doesn't want to start if it's going out and the clutch is making noise
@Nimble KIlla just drove my car to L.A. for the week and car died. It was a faulty battery and it fried my alternator. Changed both and car runs like normal. Still have the sound which I think is coming from the compressor but will look at it sometime this week.
My system is only giving static pressure 45psi on both high and low side. With the car on and compressor engaged, there is no movement on the gauges. While the compressor seems to be the most likely culprit, I hear that a stuck open expansion valve can show the same symptom. Is there any way to troubleshoot this further without swapping out parts?
See my thing is, my a/c works fine. But when I do have it on there’s a whistle that repeatedly goes in and out consistently. Do y’all know what it can be? Maybe a belt tension or serpentine?
What about when the ac is running cold? But there's smoke coming from under the hood?
Mine works, i just recharged it put in one 12oz can, it blows cold air now…might need another can, but clutch was coming on every 7-10 seconds, but it makes a ratteling noise?? Just had a new compressor like 6-7 years ago. I put in freon till the green pop up thing stayed ip when compressor was on…then i checked an it was blowing cool air, but the clips didnt turn color?? See how long it works i guess??
Thanks that really answered my question fast!
Great info simple diagnosis
I just added freon to my vehicle its cold and staying cold but loud noises around fan area and vibration any suggestions or ideas of the cause?
Thanks. Exactly what my2012 Tucson is doing. I sweat at stop lights and then is cools off a little when I drive to the next stop light.
Is it cold at stoplights? Or no cold at all?
@@aldoboquiren5304 no cold at all.
Our 2012 Tucson did that a few days ago, and now it's rattling badly. Whelp... time for a new compressor, condensor and receiver Drier, seals and expansion valve. (if it's making that much noise, it's likely lost some bits of parts in the cooling system, so I need to flush it out, and there's no way I can flush that condensor well enough to avoid re-contaminating the new compressor. Take a look at this video for some tips on diagnosing. ruclips.net/video/BXTZURC5iQ0/видео.html If you do decide it's your compressor, you can look at this video which is EXCELLENT. ruclips.net/video/cn49NjwjfYQ/видео.html . It doesn't show any flushing of the system. I bought my parts at Buy Auto Parts. They had a 2 yr warranty on the compressor, and their condensor was cheapest by far.
@@jum5238 I bought a compressor, expansion valve and filter on amazon and installed them last weekend. Had a mechanic recover the R134a and then I Loaned the pump and manifold kit from Autozone. It's running great now. Now that you mention it, there were times if I started my car with the AC on, it would rattle badly.
Mine will stay hot for about 8 to 10 mins, Only the fan will keep blowing despite driving around.
After 10 mins, it will start working normally. I can park, switch off my engine, and twill still work when I need it, but the whole thing repeats itself the next day...
So if the temperature doesn't fluctuate the compressor is still ok?
Hey thanks for the info working on my car notice the clutch is short cycling the freon is good pressure switch is good but the clutch keep cutting off and on to soon could it be the coil is going bad
Thank you my Question has been answered time for a compressor
my a/c blows in high till I get on freeway than blows alot slower yet still cold. Is this a compressor or electrical issues,?
Used manifild guage so you can know the suction pressure and high side pressure there so many causes of ac not cooling well
yup
How to tell if your AC compressor solenoid valve is bad?
My car hose was leaking I plugged all the holes up but I see the Freeon come out near the fan area as soon as the fan starts is that a compressor or a bad fan
How do you know when to change just the compressor or the whole system? I've been told and seen on YT once the compressor goes bad fine metal particulate contaminates the system an will continue to blow through the evaporator, condenser, etc and will quickly blow back into the compressor and ruin the new one.
My Honda when I hit certain bumps my AC goes off and if I hit another bump it comes back on..I’ve had blower checked and it’s good compressor is good..what could be the problem?
i have some problem with my compressor. its new, just installed it. but it empties the freon way too fast. like i just fill it up then for 5-10 minutes the freon is gone. also i check if there are leaks, no leaks found, so im confused whats going on.
Do I need to replace the condenseur if I replace the ac compressor ?
i cant for the life of find an answer to my problem. When i turn my AC on, it works perfect, cold air, good flow, but when its on and i get over 3k revs, the sound it makes is awful, like a grinding noise as if its on a wheel, not constant, but as if somethings turning and grinding, its consistent with rpm so increases in speed and noise as the rpm does.
Thanks man my car has the same guage readings, glad this video is up. Time to get digging in the engine bay🙃
My wife has 2014 chevy cruze that squeaks when she gives it gas with the ac on.. wat is this?
wait so how would you know the difference between a stuck expansion valve issue vs a bad compressor. in essence I would assume both would show on the ac gauge that the low pressure is too high and that the high pressure is too low (I might be wrong). but it that were the case how would you know which one is the issue? there's a big difference money wise to replace an expansion valve vs replacing an ac compressor.
also I've heard that when you replace an AC compressor you have to replace the condenser, dryer and possibly the expansion valve. is this true or do u perform an AC flush to rid the system of metallic particles. I have a Hyundai Sonata 2013.
My compressor stays on, it keeps truck kinda cool in 95f outside, but anything below 85f outside it’s pretty cold in the truck. Freon is full, gauge is where it should be. Sometimes gets wArmer then cold while driving. Coolant is full but pretty dirty, is that a big problem? Any help?
HI. i recent purchased a car sight unseen and noticed that theres a lot of brown dust around the ac compressor clutch. The cooling appears to be fine in the car at the moment, but I'm curious if this is a sign of a previous issue or just normal wear. Thanks!
How will it differ from low refrigerant? it should produce similar situation in either case.
I need a little help with my 2006 Honda civic. Got the car used with no AC. I tried fixing it by replacing ac condenser, evaporator coil, and receiver dryer. I didn't replace the ac compressor. Charged it up, it was somewhat cold but not freezing cold. This was 3 years ago. Now the AC is blowing cool but not cold air. I thought maybe there was a leak but there's pressure in the lines. I added a little more freon, it got a little cold at that time and next day, it was blowing cool air only. So maybe i got a weak or bad ac compressor, what do you think? Everything else there was replaced not too long ago. I think I'll replace the ac compressor because i can't figure out what else could be wrong with it. The AC compressor clutch is fine.
My car a/c not working properly. And cooling fan working at high speed. If I pour some water on condenser start cooling. Car is Toyota Corolla 2013 model. Variable displacement compressor. Compressor takes delay for getting on even I switched on a/c. Please tell me the possible fault
Thanks

So weird! my 2016 Off Road, 4x4, all of a sudden just shut off. (green ac light went off and stays off). When I push the AC button on, I can hear it run then it shuts off, green ac light goes off. I checked the fuse and the replay, they are working properly. I had a friend come over and he said the compressor is running which is good news, however, he then assumed the refrigerant its empty so he was going to add freon but, his gage says the freon in full. That is where we are confused. Also its the 1234y NOT the usual 123A. Any insights? I want to sell this truck but I need to get this fixed first. We live in Florida. We do NOT have the $$ to have it serviced or even diagnosed at a local toyota dealership, they are way expensive. Just installed new air cabin filter, it was atrociously bad, but that hasn't fixed it at all. ???Help??? MIGHT be a bad pressure switch>?? Praying mine if NOT behind the firewall.....ugh!
if the glove doesn't fit you must acquit
Hey I have a 2008 toyota Yaris
My compressor colds at idle
But when driving it get warm
I’ve changed the control valve and expansion valve.. still having the same problem. Help! Thanks.
Loss of blower speed but still cool air comes out
Y cant the compressor be repair instead of replaced?
Because they have to be pulled out for it to be repaired
Hi. I HAVE MUSTANG ECOBOOST 2017 american car. I am using it in dubai. I have AC problem. AC gets hoter as I drives. It cools better when i stop the car or release ACCELERATOR. I tool the car to many workshop and they still couldnt diagnose the problem. As I take the car to workshop it works perfectly. Sometimes they checked the pressure and said that the gas is more and released gas. The gas pressure increases and the compressor stops working. One of the technician told me that this could be problem with thermostat and they have to replace the thermostat which is a long procedure as they should dismantle the entire dash board. Some people say that the compressor might be bad and all. I am not able get a proper solution for the same. Could you please advise me what could be the problem?
Hey my ac in my Honda blows cold on one side , I changed the blend door actuator , but it still does it . Any suggestions
Ac and heat only work on high. What's the problem?
This was a great help thank you. I spent most of yesterday struggling with mine. Is the system supposed to pull the freon in? I put a full vac on first.
My car shakes when I trun on my ac does that mean I have to replace it?????
What about loss of power when the ac is turned on !? Is that another symptom the compressor is bad?
I have a question? We recently put a new battery in our 2004 Toyota Sienna and now there is a clicking noise coming from under the hood when we turn on the A/C. WHAT could THAT be?!
Does this work the same way with heat and would a bad compressor cause over heating
I have a 2008 Accord V6 coupe.
Air was blowing hot compressor not kicking on, checked fuses and relay all good jump started my compressor thru relay added some freon compressor started working.
I put the relay back in and finished charging the a)c then I noticed a hissing coming from the high pressure hose,it was leaking around where the metal went into the rubber part.
I ordered one and waiting on it to arrive.
Is this common? Could there be other issues to cause this part to fail? It worked fine last year, noticed this the first time I used it this year.
I have the same issue with my accord v6 bro. when I recharged my ac it was making hissing sound like empty can type noise. and I kinda saw it bubble where u add the Freon in. I’m not sure if it’s a leak on the needle or what. Did u end up fixing ur problem ?
could a bad belt causing belt slippage cause this same syptoms as well?
That is my question aswell??
My car's ac kinda fluctuating. Its cold when switched On and kind turn hot when I accelerate the speed
Checked the AC on my GF 2004 Toyota Corolla that was blowing hot air. The magnetic clutch doesn't engage / spin on the compressor. With the AC turned on the fan under the hood doesn't spin. Checked the AC relay by swapping it out with the horn relay, horn didn't work, AC relay was bad. I replaced the AC relay but it didn't fix the problem. The fan still doesn't spin and the magnetic clutch on the compressor doesn't engage / spin. Not sure what to do and can't really afford going to a mechanic (they quoted me $125 just for the diagnostic).
Thank you! Question: would the compressor not be making noise if it was getting weak?
Great analogy about the AC compressor. Made it much easier to understand lol
My ac got hissing sound,no cold air....i check the compresor ok.. whats the common prob?
Any comments 2012 ford fiesta. Charges and blows cold for a couple days but, then blows out hose. ???????
my exact problem thanks man hey what brands should i stay away from i need a new compressor and thinking of getting a piston upgraded from a rotor style on my 2006 mazda 3 2.3 l ????
2013 Chrysler town and country 400,000 miles my car I never change compressor I drive in the highway is cold warm you can help me
I have this Honda Brio amaze and air is not cooling during Idle, only when the car is running or giving it a rev. what do you think I should replace? both Compressor and condenser?,. thank you,.
My ac blows air out while I’m driving and I have it on 0 and when I break or stop it stops blowing air
Hi I don't really use my ac much now but the compresser is making noice and car seams to have problems with something not working right when in gear like break is stuck but it's not? 98 buick
What if you have low Freon? Will it have the same symptoms?
My car’s AC goes out only when it rains or goes through the car wash. It comes back on later on when it’s dry
MY 1991 Nissan hardbody blows cold air 11Celsius (51.8 Farenheit) it used to squeal like a pig for a few seconds when I turned it on, now it is on all the time without turning the A/C on, and I noticed oil is present around the compressor.
Do I need a new compressor?
Would any body else have like a burning smell???
If you were to replace this part, how much would you charge for installation? Just asking because I don’t want to get ripped off
1 million dollars but for u friend 2
Is it true that a malfunctioning thermostat sensor or thermostat cooling engine effect compressor operation?
my freons good -fans hi/lo good -clutch engages on comp etc -must be a weak compressor car is at 170 k so?
How do I replace the expansion valve on my 06 chrysler town and country 3.8?
I drive a 06 Taurus so I think it's the same problem with mine
Mine is doing the same but i have a friend who had the same problame and all he done is chabmnge the filters
my AC works for a while, say 30 minutes. then blows warm air for 10 minutes. repeat. what's going on?
Hey I have a Toyota 2008 Yaris
My compressor colds at idle
But when driving it get warm
I’ve changed the control valve and expansion valve.. still having the same problem. Help! Thanks.
