Why does my Honda City’s AC only blow cold air while driving, but not when idling?

Some owners report that the AC works fine while driving but fails to cool when the car is stationary. Could this be due to a weak cooling fan, low refrigerant, o r compressor issues? How can this problem be diagnosed and fixed?

If the AC works fine while driving but not when idling, this could indicate a problem with the cooling fan, low refrigerant, o r a malfunctioning compressor. The cooling fan helps dissipate heat from the condenser, and if it’s not working properly, the system may struggle to cool when the car is stationary. Low refrigerant levels can also cause this issue, as the pressure may when idling, affecting the system’s performance. A professional technician can inspect the fan, refrigerant levels, and compressor to diagnose and fix the issue.
