No cold air from a/c
09 Clubman S
a/c blowing cold one day, not the next.
Low speed radiator fan not functioning, system a full pound low on Freon.
Recharge with dye and radiator fan is working properly and a/c is blowing ice cold.
Obviously looking for a leak, but at least my compressor is intact.
UPDATE: 2 days later, no cold air.
Upon further inspection, found where the low side hard pipe had been rubbing against rubber axle grommet (see pic and gouge in rubber along with pipe.. )
This particular part has been upgraded 4 times since 08. Has anyone seen this behavior? Do I need to inspect motor mounts? What else could cause this rubbing? car has 51,000 miles on it and I don't drive it over curbs etc...
