Honda Passport A/C not blowing cold air due to leaking discharge hose replacement needed on Honda Passport

Some Honda Passport owners report experiencing issues with their A/C not blowing cold air due to a leaking discharge hose. Common causes include low refrigerant levels and problems with dirty evaporators or condensers, often stemming from clogged components. Many owners find it essential to perform refrigerant leak tests to identify the source of the issue. If the discharge hose is leaking, it may necessitate the replacement of related parts such as the receiver drier, orifice tube, and possibly the expansion valve for a comprehensive repair. During the replacement process, ensuring proper sealing of the ports is crucial to prevent moisture and dust contamination, which can lead to premature A/C compressor failure. Additionally, some owners have reported that repairs involving discharge hose leaks and refrigerant reloading may need to be handled by a dealership due to the specialized nature of the work.
