A/C Service in Malaysian Climate
Malaysia's year-round tropical heat makes A/C a daily essential — poor A/C directly affects driving comfort and resale value. The most common Perodua A/C issue is a musty smell from evaporator mold growth (humidity + frequent short trips). Clean the evaporator every 2 years (RM 180–280). Gas top-up (R134a) is needed every 3–5 years or when cooling weakens. Always check for leaks before topping up gas.
