Aircond Advice
Why gas keeps dropping, how leaks are checked and what to do next.
MazdaCX-30The Mazda CX-30’s intermittent fault is still being narrowed down, with an expansion-valve trial proposed before reassessing pressure. The video acknowledges uncertainty and supplies no final result, so compressor suspicion remains provisional.

PeroduaVivaThe Viva failed again only a month after compressor replacement, with black contamination still present. The focus is incomplete circuit treatment, not condemning all Chinese OEM parts; the follow-up scope must reflect actual contamination.

Flushing can be part of A/C maintenance, but it cannot fix a damaged or leaking part. If no UV trace is visible, other checks may still be needed to find a leak. Plan maintenance around the car's condition and service requirements.
HondaCivic FCThis Honda Civic FC is low on refrigerant, with a suspected evaporator leak and a noisy compressor. The leak and compressor performance need separate checks before deciding which parts actually require replacement.
The Tesla repeatedly lost refrigerant after a customer-purchased compressor was installed elsewhere. Several connection and condenser-area leaks were found; workmanship was suspected, while responsibility still requires test and repair records.
Mercedes-BenzC-Class W205This Mercedes W205 has signs of a severe evaporator leak, and missing fasteners are found during dismantling. Along with finding the leak, the technician needs to check the earlier installation and make sure the assembly is properly secured...
PeroduaVivaThe Viva cools at night but poorly by day, with the charge assessed as appropriate. The final fault is not stated; the case supports further heat-load and operating checks rather than indiscriminate regassing.
BMWE46 CiThe BMW E46 Ci discussion covers replacement-coil supply and service experiences, with another unidentified component needing custom work. Seven-month or near-ten-year examples are not durability guarantees.
PeroduaMyvi i10The Myvi still leaked after compressor and condenser replacement. Testing identified a compressor-housing O-ring leak, supporting a targeted sealing repair rather than automatically condemning the complete assembly.
