Question:
It just got warm out so I went to use my A/C for the first time (2003 chevy cavalier, btw) and it's definitely not blowing cool air. It actually seems to blow whatever temperature it is outside into my vehicle (this morning it was cooler, maybe 60 and I tried it and the air was "cool" but definitely not the chilly a/c air that it's supposed to be). When it's 80, it feels like hot air coming through. Someone told me I could be low on freon (sp?) and I saw a DIY a/c kit at Auto Zone for about $25.00. Should I take it to the shop or give the self-treatment a go? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

check in the mail for the car repair coupons, some places will offer free a/c system testing. Of course they will try to pressure you into using them to fix it, but thats up to you.Passenger side wheel cylinder?
you have to make sure it's not your compressor...if the clutch on the compressor is engaging when you turn on the AC then the freon kit is a good choice..and it's very easy to doYou could try the kit, that's what I would use.

It sounds like you have the button pushed in that takes the air from the outside and uses it in your vents but to fix that all you have to do is push the "a/c" button. If that doesn't work then you're low on freon. If you can spare the change SAVE YOURSELF THE TROUBLE and take it to a shop... average cost $30-50 depending on how much freon you're car holds.Hi can i check how long does a water pump usually last?

Assuming you have all the switches in the right position, and still getting hot air. You have a freon leak, most likely.You can buy the kit and it may work for a while but with the leak by the end of summer, you may have to refill it again. Take it in and get it checked out. If it's a seal, they can replace that and then the system will last you for a while.
My clutch is going out on my truck wut do i need?
If it's the compressor leaking, then you have the choice, repair it or just use the kit until you can save enough to replace it.
Get it fixed, one way or the other. The defrosters also use the AC to help remove moisture in the air before it blows across the windshield. Good luck
