I bought my car in october of 2001 when the OZ first appeared on the market. its now 2005 about 4 years later and my AC doesnt work!

I have 2 questions. Is it that my AC freon or whatever it is is empty? Or do i have a fuse blown somewhere or its not working correctly?

I checked the fuse in the engine compartment bay and the fuse is fine.

I asked this because even if i have no freon left in my AC, when i drive and i switch to AC and i blast it, i dont feel my car bog down. Wouldn't i recieve that -50hp feeling when i turn on the AC even if i have no freon because it's still activating the AC pump?

 

Probably out of Freon. Get that crap refilled.

But I could be wrong...

Moving to Troubleshooting.

 

My ac went out too, but it makes a weird ugly noise when u turn it on, i took it in and they said its my ac compressor.if ur doesnt make an ugly noise its probly notthing bad

 

If youre not getting any lag it means the compressor isnt engaging at all, could be a pulley thats broken loose, could be a bunch of stuff. Take it to a shop.

 

I think its the compressor cause mine doesn't engage either.

 

isnt it kinda cold to be using ur ac?

 

Uh, AC stands for Air Conditioning.

Heating the air is conditioning it.

The AC button just adds extra power to the air and heats/cools it as needed.

 

wow .. i learn something new everyday ... maybe somethings wrong with mine too then ... i swear the heat that blows are is still cold ...

 

damn it... i hope its not somethign too expensive... i guess i'll just remove the entire unit for MORE POWER!! lol....

summer is gonna suk if i dont fix this...
