i was parked not 50 feet from the freightliner in Amarillo, TX last night. I thought dealerships where the most exspensive way to fix a truck?

Your not paying for it are you ? Just wait till winter when the rates are lower.
-
no but when i called, yesterday he said, have TA check it, it they want like $1000 just have them charge it again and that'll work until you can get somewhere where i can fix it....
So if TA is to much, i would assume FL would be allot worse.

You cant put a price on comfort.
Could be something as simple as little low on freon.
-
nope, i just had it done 2 weeks ago. I brought it into a Wingfoot Truck and Trailer repair shop, guy says theres no freon in it.....
I was like YA THINK!
Then he hooks up his fancy little machine and 1 hour later it says NO LEAKS.
Magical how 4.75lbs of freon magicly disapear.....
Then he's like it just needs to be charged, so to fills it up.
3 days later no AC.
So clearly filling it will not fix it, something somewhere IS leaking, oviously

American trucker when do you think the new video will be up?
-

American TruckerMD STEELERS FAN Thanks this. -
Should be easy to find where it's leaking since it leaked out so soon.Do u c any oily spots around the condenser,compressor,or lines?Friend of mine drives a company trk and after he points to the oil spot on the condenser, mechanic finds the leak.
New condenser,recharge,now cold air.
American-Trucker Thanks this. -

AT my old man used to own an 02 century a couple years ago and from the day we bought we owned it for almost 4 years there was a leak in the ac and for 4 years it was in and out of multiple shops including Freightliner and the leak was impossible to find at the end Freightliner and 2 independents said we give up we tried everything and replaced everything and still leaked it was hopeless. So this is one of the Century issues we dealt with it.
Oh and waiting on the vids and pics!!
