Auto A/C repair in La Paz, or San Jose Del Cabo ?


Can anyone recommend an A/C repair shop or mechanic ?

Thanks for any help.

Dave,

We recently returned from a trip to the mainland. When I started the Blazer, only hot air. Used the 4/40 AC for a couple days until we drove by a shop and pulled in. 'Shop' is a few canopies on a lot. I was pretty sure it wasn't just a charge I needed. The mechanic said we needed new compressor seals.

Bottom line, he did the work in a few hours. It's been working fine since then. Cost was M$1900. Hopefully the charge will hold.

I hesitate to recommend him, but he did seem to do an okay job for us and looks like no one else is responding with a better choice.

I knew where I was so I assumed everyone else did too.:lol:

After all, I've never been lost. I've only explored new places.

My assumption was wrong. Your assumption is right.

I had A/C problems in La Paz. Found a great guy who speaks engish and was reasonable and quick. He also directed me to a body shop for some minor work. His card is in LP and I'm in Colo for the summer, but he's easy to find.
Go north on Malacon past El Morro. Take the 1st right on cobblestone street just before Ariza Hotel. Go 1 blk and take a right on dirt road. It looks residential, but about 6 houses up on left is a new shop. Very large and modern. He also works on boat A/C at Marina Palmira. If you call them, they can give you his VHF channel or his phone #. Good luck
