Do our cars have weak air-conditioners? - Page 7 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I keep mine on the 2nd fan speed on the blue dot (temp control) and it is cool enough for me.
If you want cold, set the temp to MAX and hit the recirc. button.

NO IT DOESN'T.

I hardly use it anyway.

I WAIT SO MANY MONTHS

To open my windows, its almost a SIN to use A/C

CAUTION! Do NOT hang meat in your Camaro! It could get you arrested for INDECENT EXPOSURE. Do not ask how I know!

Same here. Seen 115+ already. Black car ..Typical GM A\C..I could hang meat in my car

Mine was weak. But there was a HVAC update. Dealer did and it is fine. I always put it on recir to start.

CUPRA · 07-05-2010, 12:51 AM

I couldn't believe how well the AC works in my Camaro! It didn't seem to cold at first, till I hit recirc... then it cools down very quickly.

I've come from a Jeep Commander which had a massive interior and even with the rear AC on, half the time I would reach my destination before the AC had a chance to cool down the interior.

Compared to that, the Camaro is like driving in a refrigerator!

WadeWilson · 07-05-2010, 01:42 AM

No problems here. Was 103 last weekend and 94 today and it does more than an adequate job of keeping me cool

Andro · 07-05-2010, 01:43 AM

I've got limo tint on my windows and it's a black on black camaro with outside temps hovering around 107 degree's and it's still cold on the inside of my car

cybergm10 · 07-05-2010, 01:46 AM

i know its probable but did you make sure the (snowflake) button on the dash was pushed in near the defogger and recirculator button

joe h · 07-05-2010, 01:51 AM

mine is going in on friday. The compressor whines and warm air comes out half the time.

Kahdir · 07-05-2010, 02:23 AM

My A/C works well, using recirculate on max w/ fan setting on 2-4 to cool the interior in a couple minutes. Comparing it to my wife's Jeep Wrangler, the Jeep's A/C cools faster on similar settings...

IamJacksCamaro · 07-05-2010, 03:11 AM

Mine works just fine. I have to turn it down after a while, or it gets too cold.

iiryani · 07-05-2010, 08:20 AM

At 1,000 miles my air conditioner stopped working completely. Ended up being a broken blower motor, but now that it's working again, yeah, the AC is very weak.
