Your car’s AC system is essential for comfort — especially in Abu Dhabi’s extreme heat. When your AC isn’t cooling properly, blowing weak air, or emitting strange odors, it could be due to a faulty AC core.
At Meta Mechanics Abu Dhabi, we specialize in Car Core Replacement, including AC evaporator core, condenser core, and heater core services. Our certified technicians use advanced diagnostic tools and genuine parts to restore your AC’s cooling performance efficiently and reliably.
What Is an AC Core?
In automotive air conditioning systems, “core” usually refers to key cooling or heating components:
- Evaporator Core: Absorbs heat from the cabin air and cools it.
- Condenser Core: Releases heat from the refrigerant outside the vehicle.
- Heater Core: Provides warm air during colder conditions by transferring engine heat to the cabin.
If any of these cores fail, your AC may stop cooling or heating effectively — or even leak refrigerant or coolant.
Signs You Need AC Core Replacement
If your car’s air conditioning isn’t performing as it should, here are some common signs that your AC core needs attention:
- Weak or no cooling performance
- Warm air blowing from vents
- Unpleasant smells from AC vents
- Leaking coolant or refrigerant under dashboard or hood
- Foggy windows due to internal moisture
- Whistling or hissing noises when AC is on
Ignoring these signs can lead to compressor damage and more expensive repairs later.

Why Do AC Cores Fail?
Several factors can cause your car’s AC or heater core to fail over time, including:
- Corrosion due to moisture and contaminants
- Refrigerant leaks or pressure imbalances
- Blockages from dirt, oil, or debris
- Wear and tear from long-term use
- Poor-quality coolant or refrigerant

Typically, it takes 3 to 6 hours, depending on your vehicle model and AC design.
3. What causes AC cores to leak?
Leaks usually occur due to corrosion, wear, or contamination in the refrigerant system.
4. Do you use original AC cores?
Yes, we use OEM or genuine parts for all replacements to ensure durability and performance.
