Dear forummers,

Would appreciat it if anyone encountered the same problem as the problem that I have now. My car's air conditioner takes quite a while to blow cold air during the first start up in the mornings, the latest time for it to start blowing cold air was 9mins 45 seconds. If I stop at traffic lights, the cold air will slowly decrease until it blows warm air. But when I start to move again (pull away from the traffic lights) the a/c will start blowing cold air again. The temperature range I usually set is between 20-22 degrees. Would like some feedback from yous and what has been replaced to solve the problem. Thanks.

Do you use the A/C alot?

When was the last time you had the system checked or added freon?

Yes, I agree with Pukka. Have the system checked for leakage. Some R134a may have evaporated and it needs a fill-up.
