Hello all,
2003 Eddie Bauer edition. I hadn't driven the car in a few weeks and the battery died, jump started and took it to get smogged for registration renewal and guy said he can't smog it because the sensors weren't ready since the battery died. I have cheap OBD2 scanner and I have been...
Hello all,
I am replacing the condensor and accumulator/drier unit today in my 03 Eddie Bauer (after RockAuto sent the wrong part and i had to send back the wrong and wait for the right part). Anyways I was hoping to get this done before the weekend but i cannot find the torque specs anywhere...
OK thank you! I am on Rock Autos site, and have the Denso condensor in my cart. It says to also change the AC Drier/Accumulator so I also have the UAC drier/accumulator with rear controls in my cart. It also says to replace the condensor O-rings. But when I click teh O-rings link there are 9...
update, took off the top shroud over radiator and the little plastic side piece that goes between the radiator and whatever is in from of the radiator. noticable AC oil coming out of this thing. i had previously used dye oil to find leak so here is a pic of where its leaking/hissing with a UV...
Wow, over 29,000 reviews! THat looks like exaclty what I am looking for. Thanks! Do you happen to know if it can do "dealer options" like the Carista can? For example with the Carista if you have the paid subscription you can change dealer options on newer cars like auto windows, lock on...
OK so today, I vaccuumed out my AC and refilled with about 54 oz of freon(2003 Eddie Bauer that has rear AC) AC is working much better. Last week I replaced teh rear blend valve and mode solenoid due to the rear blowing hot air on a previous drive. However, after turning off the motor today I...
Hello All,
I currently have a really cheesy code reader that is fine for basic stuff and resetting engine codes. I also have a Carista and OBD Auto Doctor on a laptop. But the laptop is about to die and the OBD Auto Doctor is a couple of years old anyways. So I was considering either getting...
I had the same thing happen to mine before I got it (got it from my sister in law who was the original owner), her mechanic had to fix it with fiberglass and epoxy because he couldn't find a replacement. Luckily the cracks were at the top where the hoses connect so even before it was repaired...
Thanks for the help so far. Interesting to know about that tool though it boggles my mind how it can work and not lose freon lol! I did try tightening it with a tool I have for valve stems. One thing I was having trouble with when I looked a year or so ago was what size these things take. If...
Hello all,
A while back I was having an issue where the front A/C was working intermittently. It would come on cool for a few minutes, then kind of go away, and come back on etc. Someone here mentioned it is most likely a vaccuum leak, so I found one under the hood(think it was a hose that...
Hey thanks for the tips all. I never realized the pattern, but it is tied to the accelerator and letting off the accelerator. The reason I never associated it before was that there was a 4 or 5 second delay each direction. And driving in SoCal you can rarely be on your accelerator for more...
So this has been driving me crazy for a while. At first I thought it was lack of freon, so went through and charged it, and watched the compressor. All was fine, went on a long drive across the state and it would work fine, then not blow cold out the front. My wife was getting frustrated...
