They were pretty quick to get back. About 1-2 weeks after I submitted. But feels like pulling the teeth to get approved, they denied one of my claims that says "suction line leak" in the invoice, saying it is not shaft seal leak as per the warranty extension. The other invoice says "compressor...

I submitted invoices for newly issued TSB 23-012. I had repair twice in 2019 and 2022 for compressor. Honda called me and only agreed to reimburse one of them. They definately only consider shaft seal very specifically. He said for the other repair I have to wait for future potential warranty...

Will Honda reimburse any of the compressor related repair costs historically, now that they have the new issued TSB? I have some of the diagnosis /repairs for AC dated early as 2019. some of them says compressor leaking.

I found this link, this probably is it: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2023/MC-10234575-0001.pdf

Last year, I already got recharged my AC refrigerant and it has been working fine since. Good that they finally released this for compressor- seems just April. It should be much sooner, it would have saved me a lot of trouble and time last year.

Ok, That might be a good idea. Let me try tomorrow morning. I just hope it's not me being paranoid.

Yes. I always check in the morning.

So when I routinely check tire pressure for my Civic 16, one of the tires it seems sometimes the first check is reading low pressure, then I check again, it becomes normal, 32psi. When I check the other three, they seem to read normal on first try. The one that reads low in the first try...

My tires from 2016 EX has almost reached its tread life. 44k miles. If I were to change with new tires, do I transfer the TpmS sensors to new tires? It seems most people in this forum think it is unnecessary. If I change only two tires, what would happen to the TPMS lights? will they be on since...

A couple of days ago, my left driver side tire lost pressure due to a small rock, my TPMS light blinks, I went to a local shop and they repaired it. After I went home, I checked all tire pressure to be 32 normal. light was off. Today, before I went out I checked pressure it is still normal...

Just screw them if your honda dealer wants to replace compressor for $2k.... I went to charge refrigerator in April , still good. A full summer. Obviously if there is really a leak, it is quite small or leak slowly. I hope it can last another summer. Then charge once in two years is really not a...

You guys want to hear how I punish the dealer who gave me crap diagnosis: So after the dealer said I need to replace compressor for $2k, I took my civic to another dealer and they charged YF1234 for free ( I had condenser replaced there before under extended warranty). I had them write down...

I wouldn't believe for one second the crap of the evaporator dealer told you. Dealer told me to replace compressor for $2k, bull shit, I recharged freon and it has been working properly for 4+ months for me. Some guys in the forum diy charging and mentioned it last for two years... Charging by...

If you walk into a Honda dealer with AC blow hot air and look for diagnosis, it is certainly more inclined for them to tell you the problem is not condenser, because : 1. other parts are more expensive like compressor, condenser almost most cheap. 2. For condenser they need to get money from...

You should charge a can of refrigerant first to see if it works, before agreeing for expensive repair. I did, and happily it's been three months almost still holding strong. There is another thread in here teaching you how to add 1234YF yourself, cost less than $100. Some of the guys in that...

Damn! This is the thread I have been searching. Same boat here. Blow warm air but dealer says it is not condenser so no warranty. Went to a different dealer, charged a can and it's been 1.5 months and counting, still cold. I think the speed of leaking depends on how big the hole is, but also...

Just curious, did you charge the refrigerant yourself? I have seen in youtube people saying they diy the charge of YF 1234F. But don't know if any one has actually did with simple toolkit bought in autozone. I think if one charge can last a summer for 4-5 months, then it is not too bad. you just...

The rattles do you mean like the hiss sound from the AC? I heard the hiss sound when it was not working. I didn't end up repairing the compressor. I took my car to a different dealer, they told me they evac and charged a can of refrigerant. Now it has been working properly for about 1 month and...

Just an update on my AC issue: So I thought it was condensor, brought to the closest dealer, they said my compressor is leaking and need replacement, but condenser is fine. They charged me $163 for diagnosis because it is not covered by warranty and wants $2100 to repair. I was like hell no. So...

Use those simple tools like AC pro gauge and hose. probably $40 in autozone, not those technicians use. And those 30-40 a bottle R1234YF 8 ounce. I have watched some youtube video. There are some comments below stating someone did that.
