Good morning,

The issue with my ac (Toyota Camry 2007 LE) is that the pulley was making rattling noise and my mechanic suggested I changed it, that it will still work and after he changed the head, the ac worked for 2 days then stopped. I drove the car to him and he said the compressor wasn't getting enough pressure to make the ac work.

However, I found a shortcut to making it work by stepping on the throttle while in Park or increased speed but that seems to have stopped working now.

Please any solution?

Faulty pulley or tensioner. Tell the mechanic to also check the belt for wear and tear.

Any idea of price for tokunbo manual compressor for a Scion xA. Scion shares part with Yaris.

The belt and pulley was recently changed, still won't blow cool air

Let a AC technician check for compressor malfunction or low freon gas in the system.

Hello,
My AC cools when on top speed but when stationery it does not cool.
I bought a new battery 3 weeks ago and upon starting my AC began to cools very very well but now it has gone back to the same problem.
If i step on throttle when parked, the ac cools.
My car drags during first take off after it is parked for long and i suspect the injectors need servicing.
Pls what do u advice as regards my AC.
Car is Toyota Corolla sports 2006

The culprit is likely your compressor going bad but it is not professional to make a guess wehn adequate test has not been carried out.
So get a technican that is equipped with ac manifold Guage and has skill to interpret manifold pressure reading of liquid and suction side pressure on the ac system
At different rpm reading of low engine speed and high engine speed he will be able to see the compressor output and from their deduce whatever is happening.

I was told about 2 months ago to change the compressor and condenser.
Out of curiosity, why did the AC cool so well when i bought a brand new battery for the car...any explanation please

There is no relationship between change of battery and increase in ac performance, the main essence of a battery is to crank the engine engine and after that your alternator take over power management ,which is why I will always advocate for physical definite diagnosis and making inference from technical data other than online car owner observation has been done here.

Ok sir,
I am most grateful for the response.

If the noise is internal to the compressor other than bearings noise then it about changing the compressor

My AC compressor makes screeching noise each time it compresses (it's a manual compressor). An AC tech guy said the compressor is almost bad. Is that true or I just need to service it or something.

Hi
Have you fixed the noise?

Nope, I've not been able to get a good AC technician in Ibadan.
Re: Questions and answers thread on Ac System. by nickyosas(m): 1:25pm On Oct 12, 2022
Good afternoon.
Honda CRV 2008 recently started having this problem: The AC works fine while driving, but once it comes to idle or at at a traffic stop light, the car suddenly shudders with a drop in the rpm and in some instances dies. I start it back on, and it work again till the next stop sign and it happens all over again. I have scanned and there no codes. i would really appreciate your comments.
