My new 2019 Mazda 3 Sedan has the weakest air-conditioning of any car that I’ve owned in recent memory. I’m taking it into the dealer tomorrow to have it checked. I hope it’s just low on refrigerant and if it is I hope there’s no leaks in the system. I really don’t want some BS answer about it...

Just noticed this today. It is definitely related to the A/C as it hasn't rained recently and the water is fresh just after I drove the car for an hour with the A/C on. Everything I look at online is to clear the A/C drain under the car with compressed air, which I will do as soon as I can...

My 05 a few weeks ago when the a/c or defroster cuts in the car loses power it’s a 5 speed but when you shit at first there is no power then suddenly it kicks in, does this also with the defroster on. The ac has not been working it blows cool for about a minute then gets warm. Anybody seen this...

Put on a new a/c compressor last weekend, then vacuumed and recharged it to right amount of r134 on Monday. Was about to drive home when I noticed my car smelling like refrigerant. Turns out it was a bad pressure release valve. Is it possible to just replace that valve or I am going to have to...

So this is something very similar to what I did with my 2002 Protege5. Our 2004 to 2009 Mazda 3's manual HVAC system is very similar. Our vent selector is indicating the floor and windshield, or the windshield vent, the A/C system is switch on. The big butt, is that the A/C light fails to...

Hello all, new to the forums and this is my first question. I have a 2010 Mazda 3 hatchback with the 2.5 AT. Regarding the AC system, today I went out to the check the pressure because my air felt a bit warm. It wasn’t low on pressure, but the Shrader valve wouldn’t shut properly when I...

Hi everyone, owner of a 2008 Mazda 3i. 2 years ago I had the a/c compressor replaced, and worked fine for nearly 19 months. It now exhibits all symptoms associated with failing/ failed high pressure switch. My questions are: 1. Is there a way to test said switch 2. What's the difficulty in...

I have completed this installation today, I really like it, specially for the sound. Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk

In my quest for increased fuel economy, I've come up with an idea that I wanted to run by you guys... "Economy" and "Economy+" settings for your air conditioner: - Economy mode would only operate the compressor when the throttle input is at 0% for 5 seconds, regardless of whether or not you...

So I'm trying to use the AC Pro Vent and Duct Cleaner and it says to spray the cleaner into the fresh air intake for the AC. Where exactly is that on a 2014 Mazda3? Pics would also be helpful.

Please forgive me, I don't know too much about cars honestly. I have a 2010 Mazda 3, it's automatic but it's a very basic model otherwise. Occasionally, the a/c or possibly the fan won't blow at full power even at the highest setting. What is even stranger about this is that about 20-40...

So my parents keep insisting that if I have A/C on, drive it, then turn the car off without turning the A/C off, I'm going to "Blow the compressor". I'm a little sketchy on this whole idea. Is there are truth to it at all? I drive a 2014 Mazda3 Sport btw.

My csr (2015 GT Mazda3) is letting some weird odor when the A/C is on. It smells like letting a tire inside of your car for the entire day with the windows up. Its that smell like rubber, but comes from the vents. It has 72,000 miles on it. Enviado desde mi SM-N920T mediante Tapatalk

So I bought my 2014 Mazda3 about 4 months ago. It only had 9,000 miles so I thought it was a fantastic deal considering the mileage. About a month after I had it the A/C was making a high-pitched/whirring sound and it wasn't cooling quite as well as I remembered when I first got it. I took it to...

I mistakenly ordered these for my 2017 and realized after they had shipped. These will not fit a 2017! As advertised, these are for 2004-2009 Mazda3 models. $12 paypal/venmo/squarepay.Shipping from SD,CA.

My car has the dual zone climate control system. There are two air conditioning modes - A/C & A/C Eco. The manual says "A/C ECO function is designed to economise use of the air conditioning system. “ A/C ECO ” is displayed to indicate that the air conditioning system is operating at optimum...

The dealership wants $119 for this service. This is something I can do myself, right? I believe it's just a Freon or something of that sort with the added benefit of killing mold and keeping the car smelling new (as they put it)

So, I like to have fresh air slightly circulating in my cars and usually have the fan set at 1, the mode to defrost/floor, and the temperatures to 71/71. I never touch it and leave it like that. It was set like this in my Mazda6 without issue. But with the Mazda3, the fan blows cold air to the...

This particular phenomenon has been occurring during the last couple of days only and I'm unable to pinpoint what caused it. 2007 Mazda 3s Hatch When I have the fan on to blow air in the cabin and the A/C button and light is off, when I turn the heat knob towards heat, the A/C light comes on...
