Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I service my BMW AC?
We recommend AC check every year and cabin filter replacement every 15,000-20,000 km for optimal performance.
Why does my AC smell bad?
Usually caused by mold/bacteria on the evaporator. We can clean and sanitize the system to eliminate odors.
What refrigerant does my BMW use?
Most pre-2017 BMW use R134a. Newer models use R1234yf. We service both with proper equipment.
Can you convert R1234yf to R134a?
We don't recommend conversion as the systems are designed differently. We have proper R1234yf equipment.
Why is my AC compressor making noise?
Could be bearing wear, clutch issues, or internal failure. Early diagnosis can prevent complete failure.
How long does AC gas last?
Ideally, AC systems are sealed and shouldn't lose refrigerant. Any loss indicates a leak that should be repaired.
Customer Reviews
AC was barely cooling. They found a leak in the condenser and replaced it. AC is ice cold now even in Hyderabad summer!
Had bad smell from AC. They cleaned the evaporator and replaced the cabin filter. Fresh air now, great service!
Heat pump wasn't working properly in my i3. They diagnosed and fixed it. Heating and cooling work perfectly now.
