Air conditioning does not get cold any longer - it is still cool. Can freon be added (if this is the issue) or is this a/c past the freon adding era for repairs? Thanks, Jim

No it just needs a top up all R134 systems lose gas after a few years from new ,i would empty system then vacumn and then put a additive in for leaks then add the gas and it should be ok for a few more years to come

The front air conditioner on my 2003 dodge grand caravan has a small leak that the dealship says is under the dash. Can I just put a charge on the front unit the back unit blows cold air. Is this...

There is only one system, so your conclusion doesn't make sense. If the front evaporator is leaking, the whole system will lose charge, and the back will not be cooling. Your problem may actually be the front blend door. Recommend you get a second opinon. Evaporator replacement is much more than $300.

How do i put freon in my 2006 lincoln zephyr?

best bet is to verify thats your problem first. Have a shop check it for you. If it doesnt need freon and you add some you will create other issues. Also if you actually lost freon on a car this new then you have a leak somewhere. Anything you do will just cause more freon to leak into the atmosphere which is a major no no in the Automobile industry. If we released freon we would loose our licence.

The air conditioning compressor cycles continuously, sometimes cutting off the engine, and there is no longer cold air coming out.

Try to add freon,it is most likely low,and needs the recharge,also,if it leaked freon,it leaked oil,so put some oil in it also,If this was helpful,please rate,thank you.

My a/c compressor works but blows low cool air instead of freezing cold. A mechanic said I need to vacuum the inside and add freon. Can I add freon my self?

Yes you can, go to any auto parts store. Putting vacuum on the system to empty is just to make sure any outside moisture didnt enter the system through whatever leak caused some of the freon to discharge.

Air conditioning system is not colling the car ? what do Ineed to do ?

i need to know how is not cooling the car?
is the fan blowing air or is the blowing air not cold?
it probably isnt cold.lets try that.
put a set of 134a ac gauges on the system and verify pressures.if it has low freon you may hear the compressor turning on and off.if so for sure its low and you will just need to add freon.
go get a 134a fron fill kit not the conversion kit.
and begin to fill untill the comp stays on and air is blowing cold.then stop filling and enjoy.
do not over fill as this will cause it to not cool again.
