Hi Latio owners,
My 4 years old latio air-con blowing warm air. After top up the air-con gas, it was good for 3 weeks. When the problem occured, I sent back to TCM for check, they said that cooling coil is defective.
Could you advice me where can I get the cooling coil replaced? Any ideas, how much it cost?
Thanks.

i did mine at autoaid, toh guan road east, about S$400.
some bros did at tomiko at ubi, price i not sure
-
Thanks dsrio.
My car air-con after top the gas it work well again. One week plus, air-con still cooling. When the problem happen again, I will send my car for air-con check and replace the cooling coil, if that is the real defective.
-
so what symtoms do u hve when u on ur aircon??is the hissing sound normal??
-
Very light hissing sound, when blowing warm air. After top up gas at TCM, air-con is cooling, did not hear any hissing sound. Air-con is working well for last 12 days.
-
Could be your evaporator unit, I have experienced once when the drying agent in the evaporator unit breaks down and block up the valve, after you off the aircon for a while it functions normal when you on it again but problem will come back again.

During the problem occurs, I have off the air-con for 5 to 10 mins and then ON the air-con, it does not help. Until I went to TCM top up gas and the air-con cooling again. Today, the car air-con still working fine.
Just guessing is that really a leaks in cooling unit!
-
up till now air con is cold but hissing sound still there some times its reali loud.....
-
hissing sound is due to cooling coil leakin, do u encounter any bitter smell comin out from the vents?
if u do its better u get ur coil replaced instead of toppin-up gas as it will not solve the prob permanantly.
-

Thanks for possible supply cooling coil.
My car air-con working well for a month, the last gas top up was one month ago. Now, I am not too sure is that really the cooling coil problem?
Anyone experience the cooling coil takes more than a month to leaks and air-con become blow warm air?

HI ALL, I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY LATIO. Same light hissing sound then i went to tan chong ubi to service, they top up the gas and become cold again only for two days. Then start blowing hot air again. my latio 3years 10 months. Guess around 4years latio will start having this problem. The ******** tan chong mechanic cant find a reason for the hissing sound and tell me to change the whole aircon unit for $2.4k..faintz..
