Have any of you guys had AC trouble??
My ac is blowing straight heat, i checked all the fuses, freon, etc... but for some reason the fans are not coming on when i turn on the ac, but sometimes after the car has been running for a while and the fans are turning the ac will work for a little while....

Mine was blowing hot then cold, and it turned out to be a pressure valve. Not sure of the cost as it was repaired for free, even with no warranty. Compressor is going to run you 800-1000 to replace. Hopefully it's not that

hey, transmission problems, shocks, etc, can run into the thousands of dollars The A/C was done for free because I blamed the dealer for it. They had replaced the compressor in February with a used one, without asking my permission first. The used one popped, I got angry that they didn't put a new one in (though I hadn't asked for either specifically), and they got me a brand new AC Delco unit installed free

what do you really expect? You did buy a luxury car. A luxury car isn't going to be cheap to fix. If you want a cheap car buy an escort or something. Seriously though, expensive cars bring expensive repairs. It's just a fact of owning one. You don't exactly have low mileage anymore either. You have over 65,000 don't you? Not that I consider it high myself, but as far as maintenance and repairs go, that's a mileage where things start to give a little bit.
