Coming home from work on the expressway with stop and go traffic. Warming up to 85* today but noticed the car was getting hotter a bit quicker and temp did not come down as quick as I thought it should once I got going. Not a big difference but acted as if was summer and 95-100*. Even switching on my secondary fan did not have the effect as it usually does. Made a stop to pick something up on the side streets and made it home with no real issue.
Got out of the car before pulling into the garage and just wanted to take a peek under the front of the car. I could not believe what I saw. The whole bottom and part of the top of the condenser was packed with mulch. Don’t know how long it could have been there since it been cool here and temps have been good with the winter temperatures.
I probably picked it up from some fancy parking lot with mulch around trees but have no idea where it could be. Could not have been that long.
Needless to say cleaned it all up, temps should be more normal now.
