Car TalkRe: Its A/C Season Again, Lets Share Problems And Solutions by beja: 6:04pm On May 28, 2018
Hi Gurus!
I drive a 2008 Toyota Camry. It was packed for a while( about a year) and got it back running recently. I however noticed the AC was not working and took it to the technician. By mere inspection he suspected a leak and said he will fix it and refill the gas. He did, the AC worked for 2 days and stopped working again- only blows hot air.
I go back and he gives me a list of parts to replace- Compressor, Condenser etc. I took it to the next technician that said it was Evaporator,Condenser and Compressor and suggested that I change to a manual compressor because getting an original auto compressor is expensive and may not work well with the condenser.
1. Please who can help me make a real diagnosis- I am based in Lagos mainland?
2. Should i change to Manual compressor, what are the risks?
3. Are there estimates for this so I am not ripped off?
Thanks
