What Causes Engine Vibration When the Air Conditioner is Turned On in the Arrizo 5?
1 Answers
Engine vibration when the air conditioner is turned on can be caused by the following reasons: Throttle Carbon Buildup: As the vehicle accumulates more mileage, carbon deposits can form in various parts, especially in the throttle. If the throttle is heavily soiled, it can obstruct air intake, causing the engine to struggle or barely manage to power the compressor. This results in noticeable vibration when the air conditioner is turned on. Engine Mount Damage: Even during normal operation, the engine vibrates, including when the compressor is activated. However, the engine mounts typically filter out some of this vibration, making it less noticeable. If the engine mounts are collapsed or damaged, the engine's balance is disrupted. Turning on the compressor might then reach a resonance frequency, amplifying the vibration.
