Bmw 1999 325I

low on refrigerate ?? what does that mean ??
is it just the air conditioning or the whole unit that keeps turning off and on randomly ?
if it is the whole unit, i had this problem also so i done some research and found out that this is quite a common problem. BMW main dealers will charge about £200 for a new unit and that doesn't include installing it.
the problem is a capacitor inside the unit.so privided you got a soldering iron, solder the new component, and know what you are doing, you can fix it yourself for the price of £0.53 the component can be puchased from Maplins and the part number is WW58N. @ 53 pence
GOOD LUCK

The fan is no longer working properly. You'll need to replace that unit which actually blows the air through the vents. The refrigerant is more than likely fine. I had my fan replaced by the dealer for $341, but the part was only $90.
