Anyone encounter this issue.
My waja after starting the aircond takes sometime to gold.
Every time I go to any AC shop, they cannot give me a confirmed answer.
Im just worry spending money and problem not resolved.


Here is the chronological order of the incidents..

1. AC not cold, only cold if driven on highway, found out AC fan faulty.
2. Replace AC fan
3. After starting engine, it will take 3-5 mins to cold
4. Now it may take up to 15mins to cold. (on hot sunny day , worst)

Air con getting cold slowly can be many reasons. You have to get an expert to check the system.
1. Enough air con refrigerant?
2. Is cooling fan for condenser running at optimum speed?
3. Air Con Expansion valve tuned proper?
4. Receiver dryer stuck?
Air con expert can plug in their meters to your system and check the gas level, and the pressure it is running at.
