Real Time Auto Repair
Salem summers are short, so the A/C tends to get ignored until the first 95-degree week, and an overheating engine doesn’t wait for a convenient time. Real Time Auto Repair services both systems, and we find the leak or the failing part rather than just topping off refrigerant or coolant and sending you off.
Pricing: A/C performance test and inspection $99. Recharge with leak dye $299–$399 (R-1234yf vehicles higher). Coolant flush from $179. Repairs are quoted in writing after diagnosis, before any work starts.
Don’t drive it if the temperature gauge is in the red, you see steam, or the heater suddenly blows cold at highway speed (a sign of low coolant). Pull over and call 503.378.7976. Overheating for even a few minutes can turn a $200 thermostat into a $3,000 head gasket.

Cooling system:
Why does my A/C only work at highway speed? Usually a cooling fan or condenser airflow problem, not refrigerant. We’ll find it.
