Car A/C Maintenance And Repair
Car A/C Maintenance And Repair in Mississauga
Summer hits, and suddenly half of Mississauga realizes their AC ain't blowing cold anymore. Concerned about repair costs or how long you'll be without your car? We're here to provide precise estimates and quick service to keep you comfortable.
Car A/C maintenance and repair isn't something most people think about until they're stuck in 35-degree heat with no cold air. Is your issue simple or complicated? Our experts can diagnose and explain what's needed in plain language before any work begins.
Most AC problems start small—a slow leak, a failing compressor. The cars we service in Dixie, Cooksville, and Erin Mills all have the same issues: refrigerant leaks, clogged condensers, and busted compressors. Catch them early, and you're looking at a quick fix. Wait till August when everyone's AC is dying? That's when repair costs rise and wait times lengthen.
Car AC Services We Offer
AC Compressor Repair
The compressor is the heart of your car's AC. When it fails, everything stops. That cycling on and off? Your compressor's dying. Sometimes it's just the clutch or bearing, not the whole unit. We'll tell you what actually needs fixing.
Refrigerant Recharge & Leak Detection
Blowing warm air usually means low refrigerant. It doesn't just disappear - there's a leak somewhere. A proper recharge includes leak detection. Otherwise, you're paying for refrigerant that leaks out again in a month.
AC System Diagnostics
Weak airflow, strange smells, weird noises - they all mean different things. We run complete diagnostics on cars from Oakville and Milton to find the actual problem, not guess at it. Takes about 30 minutes and saves you from replacing parts you don't need.
AC Condenser Repair & Replacement
The condenser sits in front of your radiator and cools the refrigerant. Road debris, rust, and leaks are common problems. If it's damaged, your AC won't cool properly, no matter how much refrigerant we add.
Evaporator Repair
The evaporator is hidden behind your dashboard and creates the cold air. When it leaks or clogs, you get weak airflow or that musty smell. Evaporator jobs take longer cause we gotta access it through the dashboard, but it fixes the problem for good.
AC Hose & Line Repair
AC hoses crack and leak over time, especially on older cars. We replace worn hoses and O-rings before they fail—standard issue on vehicles coming from Toronto and Burlington with higher mileage.
Blower Motor Repair
No air coming from your vents even when the AC's on? That's usually the blower motor. We test and replace faulty blower motors, so you actually get airflow again.
Cabin Air Filter Replacement
A clogged cabin filter kills your airflow and makes your AC work harder. We replace filters during AC service - it takes minutes and makes a big difference in cooling performance.
Car AC Tune Up
Regular AC maintenance prevents breakdowns during summer. We check refrigerant levels, test all components, and catch minor problems early-saving you money and avoiding surprise repairs when you need your AC most.
Signs Your Car's AC Needs Repair
Your AC doesn’t just stop working overnight. It gives you warnings first. Here’s what to watch for:
- Weak or warm air indicates a refrigerant leak or a failing compressor
- Strange grinding or squealing noises when the AC's on mean something's loose or dying
- A musty smell indicates mould growing in your evaporator
- Water pooling inside your car means a clogged drain line
- AC constantly turning on and off means your system's struggling
Your AC shows signs before it stops completely. Addressing issues early helps you avoid unexpected breakdowns and keeps you comfortable all summer.
Why Tabangi Service for Your AC Repair
We've been fixing car AC systems in Mississauga for over 25 years. Not just the easy stuff - we handle everything from quick recharges to full evaporator replacements that other shops don't wanna touch.

We see the same problems on cars from Etobicoke to Milton every day.
We're not gonna tell you your whole system needs replacing when it's just a leak or a minor part. We test everything, show you what's actually wrong, like leaks, faulty compressors, or clogged condensers, and give you options. Most repairs are done the same day if you come in early.

Depends on what’s wrong. A simple recharge runs less than a complete compressor replacement. We diagnose first and give you exact pricing before doing any work. No surprises.

A musty smell indicates mould growing in your evaporator. Happens when moisture doesn’t drain properly. We clean it out and fix the drainage issue.
