Some Cadillac XT5 owners report experiencing issues with their air conditioning not cooling properly, which may necessitate an evaporator replacement. The cost of this replacement can range from $1,237 to $1,523 on average, including labor and parts. Common problems with the air conditioning system include refrigerant leaks, compressor failures, and clogged or leaking evaporators, often resulting in warmer air from the vents. Factors contributing to inadequate cooling can include low or overcharged refrigerant, compressor malfunctions, clogged filters, dirty coils, or faulty fuses and relays. Additionally, cleaning the evaporator is a complex task that typically requires removing the entire dashboard. It is important for owners to note that simply adding refrigerant may not resolve the cooling issue if there are underlying problems with the compressor or evaporator.
