Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Troubleshooting AC PROBLEM

I refilled my ac with the with 2 cans of the stuff( i forget what its called R120,or something like that)and it it got very cold when i would use my AC, but about 2 weeks later know it doesnt work again, it just blasts hot/warm air when i turn the AC on. is there a leak? what could be the problem, i used it prob 4 or 5 days after i filled it and it worked, but i tried about a week after my last use and it didnt work.

R134a is the most current ac refrigerant. It does sound like it leak if you just put 2 cans in and is now blowing hot/warm air (but blew cold air when you added the R134a). They sell those kits at the parts stores if you want to find the leak on your own. Otherwise, if you have a warrenty that covers the ac, bring it back to the dealership.

That sounds like a huge leak. Get some R134 with dye in it so a shop can find the leak. I hope for your sake it's just a hose.

Look under your power steering reservoir. The spring clip on the power steering hose has been known to rub hole in the aluminum ac line. Oily residue.
