It’s time to charge up that A/C. Don’t wait until it is too late!
As Texas introduces us to the summertime heat, it is important that your vehicle’s air conditioning system is in full operation. There’s nothing worse than getting into a hot car on a 100o day and having an inoperable A/C system.

Air conditioning systems are designed to keep your passengers cool and comfortable. It is not uncommon for a vehicle’s air conditioning system to go untouched and unmaintained until it stops working all together.

Volkswagen recommends that you check your vehicle’s air conditioning system annually to identify any malfunctions. Sometimes waiting until the system completely stops working can cost you much more in both time and money. And don’t forget that getting stuck in the heat with no A/C is almost unbearable. Our Volkswagen Certified Technicians can inspect, evaluate, and recharge the A/C system to ensure that your air conditioning blows cold!

Take advantage of our Summer A/C special. During an A/C Service and Performance Check, the technician will evacuate the refrigerant and recharge to proper levels, check belts and hoses, check proper operation of A/C system components, check for leaks and add dye when necessary, check blower operation and vent temperatures, and perform a system performance test. We will also replace the ventilation pollen/cabin filter to help optimize the cool air flow and interior air quality.

If you haven’t had your AC system serviced in a while, give us a call at 512-681-3500 and we would be glad to help you.

Summertime Tip: To help maintain cooler temperatures inside your vehicle, we recommend utilization of an interior Genuine Volkswagen Sun Shade. Studies have shown that interior temperatures can decrease by 40o or more with the use of this product. We do sell custom fit Sun Shades in our Service Department.
