System Inspections
One of our more popular summer requests here at Silver Lake Auto & Tire Centers is car A/C inspections. Regardless of the model you have, the air conditioner will age the longer it’s in use. You might have it survive longer than a decade, or you could see problems develop in only five or six years. Therefore, it is a good idea to schedule a yearly auto A/C inspection with a certified expert so they can recommend repairs or replacements as needed. Additionally, our employees will help with filter replacements and fluid flushes and refills, so you don’t have to waste the whole day sitting around at the dealership. We value your time and money, so whatever we can do to expedite the process, we will. There’s nothing worse than getting in a hot car to realize the air is broken. Prevent this by coming into our Hartland repair center once annually for an in-depth system inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Weak or warm airflow, cooling that fades at idle, unusual noises when the A/C is running, or musty odors are common indicators that car A/C repair or inspection may be needed. These symptoms often point to low refrigerant, pressure or control issues, or a component that is beginning to fail.
Intermittent cooling can be caused by low refrigerant, pressure control faults, or failing components such as the compressor, cooling fans, or expansion device. Proper auto A/C diagnostics include pressure and temperature testing and leak checks so the root cause is corrected, not just temporarily masked.
In most cases, no. A recharge may restore cooling for a short time but does not address leaks or weakening components. Correct car A/C repair involves recovering and measuring the refrigerant in the system, locating and repairing leaks, evacuating the system, and recharging the exact factory-specified amount by weight.
Running an A/C system low on refrigerant reduces lubrication for the compressor and can lead to internal damage or system contamination. Addressing A/C concerns early helps protect the compressor and other major components while keeping repair costs predictable.
Odors are often caused by moisture buildup on the evaporator, which can allow microbial growth. Professional car A/C service includes inspecting the cabin air filter, cleaning the evaporator with approved treatments, and improving drainage or airflow. Odor treatments are selected carefully and only when appropriate for the system.
Professional A/C service with the right parts, procedures, and certified techs keeps your cabin cold and your components protected—while cheap fixes or stop-leak sealers can clog expansion valves, damage compressors, and contaminate equipment. Specifically, we use SAE-approved machines and EPA Section 609–certified technicians to recover, measure, evacuate, leak-test, and recharge by weight to factory spec; we service both R-1234yf (most late-model vehicles) and R-134a, never mix refrigerants, and document every step.
