Before, I have mentioned AC problems with my Fuso FG expedition vehicle on this forum. The truck was bought new from Kearny Mesa Fuso Dealer in San Diego and every service the failing AC -system was mentioned. But every time Kearny Mesa Fuso Dealer in San Diego claimed nothing was the matter and even on this forum they lied that it was because the customer didn’t clean the filters.
How different is the truth. Found out thanks to Mitsubishi Fuso dealer So Cal in Escondido, California where my truck is now serviced. They checked the AC system and discovered that the cold air that enters the cabin is 30 % lower than the output of the AC system. They got in touch with FUSO USA who admitted they know about this problem. It is because the cold air from the compressor passes through the heat core and absorbs there heat from the engine. This is why that as of 2007 Mitsubishi has changed their AC system on the Fuso. FUSO USA also explained that they received many complaints about pre-2007 AC Fuso systems and developed a solution. The dealer will put valves in the AC-hoses so that the cold air goes directly into the cabin and bypasses the heat core.
To know: every Fuso from before model 2007 has an inadequate, poorly designed AC system.
There is a solution.
