air conditioning

My A/C started making noise and not working all the time. There's a noise when the A/C is OFF and a somewhat similar noise when it's running. There is cold air when it's working. I took pressure readings and it fluctuates between about 15-45 on the low side when cycling off/on and I think...

Hello, I hope this is the right forum and I apologize if I get to lengthy. Here goes... We bought a new 2013 CX-9. About six few months later I was driving it and a car jumps out and I hit him going about 40 MPH. Totally his fault, fortunately no one was hurt. Insurance paid about $18,000 to...

Hey I'm looking at replacing my air filter possibly. I have just over 31k miles on my '14 CX-5 2.5l. Is it a waste to replace it at this mileage or should I replace it? Is there a particular brand that's better than the latter? I thought i read a post on this topic but I can't seem to find...

Hey guys, Been a while since I've been on this forum. I've upgraded from the yellow 2003 P5 in my avatar to a 2005 Mazda3 hatch. It's in great condition, with a few hail dings, but there's a few things bugging me. 1. The driver's side window won't roll down. I knew this when I bought the car...

Hi, hoping someone will have an idea what I should check? I have a 2009 Grand Touring that has no air flow from the front side vents on the instrument panel. The two inside ones adjacent to the radio/CD player work fine. Does anyone have suggestions to what may be restricting the air flow? Thanks!

Hey friends- I have an 06 HB, that has a loose lower airbox assembly. Upon inspection, I'm missing the part identified in the attached photo. It's a rubber grommet that the posts from the bottom of the air box pop in to to hold it securely in place. I've searched this part with every term I can...

I have had the air conditioning system on non stop lately. Recently, I started hearing a sound coming from the passenger footwell and then the A/C would stop blowing. I would turn the A/C off for 10 minutes and then back on. The fan would blow for a while but then would start to stutter and...

I am inquiring about peoples average mpg as mine seems a little low. My driving is about 50% city 50% highway, not usually much traffic, just red lights. I am not a high speed driver so it stays around speed limit 90% of the time. It is a 5spd so i coast when i can and shift before 3k rpm (try...

I noticed today that there was air coming out of the dash vents below the stereo when I had my climate control fan set at ZERO. The light was still on for outside air to come in too. I hadn't noticed before that this light was on when I had the fan off. I was sure that it all shut off when the...

Hey all, I'm new here but I found the place through google, I couldn't find the exact thread to help myself but a related one on the topic of deleting the AC from the system sent me on my quest. I just visited a friendly Auto Zone and they helped me find a shorter belt to bypass my grinding AC...

Hi, I'm new to the forum, and sadly my first post is a problem with my 2 which I've had for about a year. There are huge amounts of condensation inside the car causing the windows to fog. I'm using the ac and not recirculation. I can keep the windshield from fogging but not the rear or sides...

Hey guys, I know our cars are new and the owner's manual states that the in-cabin micro air filter should be changed every 2 years, but my air conditioner is giving me foul smell when initially turning it on. So I want to take out the in-cabin air filter and "bake" it in the sun, hopefully that...

Hi, im thinking in doing an Air Box for the CAI, just need to know what is the bests materiales to Heat insulation. I find a lot of products in this page http://www.thermotec.com but im not sure which one would be the better to use. So, if someone has another options please help thanks.

Can any one help please, im having electrical problems my interior lights wont go on, my radio dies, my air con. Sys. Not working and every time i start my car it seems like it was dead, but it does power on. I already took it to an electrical auto shop they said it was a fuse they replaced it...

So the A/C in my Protege works, but usually only on fan settings one and four. On two and three, the air still blows but the light on the A/C button either flashes on and off or doesn't come on at all, and the air goes warm when the light is off. Any ideas where the problem might be or how to...

Hi, I bought a new 2012 GT 3 weeks back. Lately,I've noticed few things. 1. There's mild vibration/rumble on acceleration on the lower gears. Its seems to be pretty consistent now. 2. There's a foul odour everytime I turn off and turn on the AC. It's similar to one where the AC filter needs...

WTB: Protege5 Air Suspension. if its out there, i would like to see it. HIT ME UP

Hi, I am in the Philippines and imported a 2008 cx9 Touring. we've been told that it needs the Auxiliary Fan Assy replaced. I want to source the part in the US and have it brought over but no idea what or where to look for. Mazda here are not giving any info so that we'll pay them $2,000 to do...

My 02 Protege 5 air conditioner quits blowing cold after about 15 minutes. I took it to the dealer and they said the freon was low, serviced the ac for about $130 and 15 minutes later it was blowing hot again. Dealer is obviously clueless and doesn't care.

I have a Mz5 2008 with approx. 75,000 miles on it. The A/C has always worked very well. Suddenly today at 88 degree F it got erratic. It stopped blowing cold air (just ambient temp air instead) most of the time. As soon as we were convinced the A/C was absolutely dead - then it would give us a...
