Car Air Conditioning Sydney

The most common cause of broken car air-cons are leaks or compressor issues. If the air is coming out of the vents cool but not cold, the filter may be blocked. Other causes include:

• Damaged cooling fan
• Radiator trouble
• Bad coolant

The good news? Once you’ve dropped your car off at one of our Natrad workshops in Sydney, we’ll be able to find the problem and solve it quickly at a competitive price — so you can get back to enjoying a cool drive on a hot day.

If the air being blown out of your car’s air-con vents isn’t as cool or as warm as it used to be, then it might be time to replace the refrigerant gas in your aircon.

When you book your car in at a Natrad workshop, we’ll degas and regas your car as part of our service. Our experts will identify and repair any issues found in your conditioning system. A quick car air conditioning regas will return your car to optimal condition.

It’s important to remember — you shouldn’t wait until there’s a problem before booking your car in for car servicing. This process helps keep the refrigerant in the cooling system from becoming contaminated or clogged. You should schedule this service routinely as part of your car’s maintenance.

Your car’s air conditioning will need repairs from time to time, as natural wear and tear are inevitable. But, you can keep your air con in the best condition by:

• Always keeping your windows closed when the air con is on
• Running the air con once a week, even in winter
• Scheduling a service every 2 years or so
• Removing bad odours in your car with an air freshener

Your air conditioning system should start blowing cold air relatively quickly once you turn it on. However, the amount of time it takes depends on the make and model of your car and how old it is. It also depends on the weather — on a very hot Sydney day, it’s normal for the system to flush out some hot air before you get the crisp cool air you’re looking for.

If you’re looking to get your car’s aircon repaired or serviced in Sydney at one of our Natrad workshops, you’re looking at paying anything from $250 upwards, depending on the parts needed and the age of the vehicle.

The cost does depend on which component is damaged and whether we can fix that component or whether it will need a full replacement. But, you can trust we’ll give you a detailed quote and a competitive price when we inspect your vehicle, so you can work out if you want us to carry out the service.
