A/C Service — Proton in Malaysian Heat
Malaysia's year-round tropical heat makes A/C failure immediately noticeable and urgent. Common Proton A/C issues: compressor failure (Saga — RM 600–1,100 replacement), refrigerant leak, musty evaporator smell. Gas recharge (R134a) is needed every 3–5 years or when cooling weakens. Always check for leaks before recharging. Clean the evaporator every 2 years to prevent mold buildup in Malaysia's humidity.
