Mon–Fri 8am–5pm · (416) 742-4521
When your A/C is weak, intermittent, blowing warm air, or not working at all, Radman Auto Repair provides car AC repair with a $135 pressure test and full A/C system evaluation. We diagnose gas, hybrid, electric vehicle, and Tesla climate systems properly before recommending repairs.
Your A/C Does Not Have to Be Totally Dead to Need Testing
The most common reason to call us is simple: your car A/C is not working the way it should. It may still blow cool sometimes, work only on certain days, take too long to cool the cabin, or stop performing when the weather gets hotter.
The Problem
Weak cooling, intermittent cooling, warm air, pressure loss, refrigerant leaks, clogged components, compressor issues, or rusted A/C lines can all feel like the same problem from the driver's seat.
The Radman Solution
We test the system first, identify the actual cause, and recommend the repair that fits: recharge, leak repair, rusted line repair, TXV diagnosis, compressor diagnosis, condenser repair, or full component replacement when required.
$135 Pressure Test & Full A/C System Evaluation
We start with a $135 pressure test and full A/C system evaluation. Our technicians spend up to 2 hours diagnosing and testing the system. Depending on the vehicle and symptoms, this may include pressure testing, leak detection, component checks, refrigerant type confirmation, performance testing, and inspection for corrosion or failed A/C components.
You do not need to wait until your A/C completely stops. If it is not cold enough, not consistent, or not working all the time, book the test before a smaller issue becomes a bigger one.

Replacing AC Lines — Etobicoke's Cost Saving Pro
Ontario road salt and harsh GTA winters are brutal on A/C lines. Most dealerships will tell you the entire line must be replaced, which can cost thousands in parts and labour. When appropriate, Radman can repair only the defective or rusted section.
Radman Expert Tip: We have the tools to replace only the defective section of the A/C line when suitable. This precision repair restores system integrity while helping save hundreds of dollars.
1234yf & 134a Leak Testing — Why We Use Nitrogen
Finding a pinhole leak in a modern A/C system requires more than a quick visual check. At our Rexdale shop, we use dry nitrogen gas for pressure testing instead of compressed air. Compressed air can introduce moisture into the system, which can contribute to corrosion and internal damage.
We Fix Gas, Hybrid, Electric & Tesla A/C Systems
Modern climate control systems are more complex than old-school A/C. Gas vehicles, hybrids, and electric vehicles can use different compressors, pressure strategies, refrigerants, and control logic. Radman handles all three categories, including Tesla climate system diagnosis.
AC Symptoms & Parts
AC Compressor
The heart of the system. If your A/C blows warm air, cools inconsistently, or makes a loud squealing noise, the compressor or clutch may be failing. See catastrophic AC compressor failure.
Condenser
Located at the front of the vehicle, exposed to road debris, salt, and corrosion from 401 and 427 driving.
AC Evaporator
Deep within the dashboard. A musty smell or refrigerant leak may mean the evaporator needs complex, labour-intensive replacement.
Receiver-Drier
Removes moisture from refrigerant. Often replaced when the A/C system is opened to help prevent future damage.
Etobicoke A/C Repair for GTA Driving Conditions
A/C problems in the GTA are often tied to the way vehicles are used here: winter salt, freeze-thaw cycles, humid summer traffic, stop-and-go driving, and road debris from routes like Highway 401, 427, 407, and local Rexdale roads. Radman Auto Repair is located at 321 Rexdale Blvd #4 in Etobicoke, serving drivers from Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Woodbridge, Rexdale, and surrounding GTA communities.
