Is your car AC not working properly? If your air-con ever malfunctions, you’ll usually need a technician at your local used car dealer to identify and repair the problem at once. After all, it can be difficult to enjoy driving during the hot months of summer without a nice cool cabin. Here are a few of the more common causes of a faulty AC system.
Malfunctioning Compressor

A car’s ignition coil transforms your low voltage power into the thousands of volts needed to create an electric spark in the spark plugs, igniting the fuel. When this crucial part fails, your vehicle’s performance can severely deteriorate, and fast. It’s easy to overlook the signs of a problem: or just ignore those signs for a bit too long. However, paying attention to subtle changes in your car’s behavior can really pay off in the long run. If you see signs of a faulty ignition coil, get it to your car dealer right away to prevent expensive repairs down the line.
Difficulty Starting the Engine
One of the earliest warning signs of a failing ignition coil is a problem with starting the engine. You might find that your car takes longer to start or doesn’t start at all. A bad ignition coil fails to provide the necessary spark for combustion, hence the struggle to start the engine. This failure can result from wear and tear, improper voltage, or heat damage over time. Read the rest of this entry »

Your Car Won’t Start
