Problem overview

Some BMW 335xi owners report experiencing inadequate cooling from their air conditioning system, often due to refrigerant leaks. These leaks are a common cause of insufficient cold air, as refrigerant is crucial for the cooling process. When leaks are suspected, some owners find that recharging the AC system with the appropriate refrigerant is necessary to restore functionality. However, if problems persist after recharging, it may be essential for a professional to inspect the system for other issues, such as a failed compressor or compressor clutch. Additionally, regular maintenance is advised, as some owners have noted that checking for signs of leaks, such as oily residue or hissing sounds, can help prevent future cooling problems.
