now issue starts when i again switch ON AC after say 30 minutes or 15 minutes and notice car was in rest and engine was switched off

AC compressor doesnt starts even on led it shows ON, it keeps going on sometime i switch off AC and even engine but nothing worked now after sweating in hot weather after 15-20minutes when i switched ON AC compressor starts working but few years ago it worked instantly as i switched ON AC

your car ac compressor is gone.....its internal parts gets stuck after heatup. when it resumes to normal it starts working.....change it

IMO, there could be two issues, either the evaporator drain pipe is choked and water is forming ice and thermostat wont turn the compressor on.

or, the compressor clutch is faulty, the GAP between clutch and pulley has increased or the electo magnet has lost its efficacy and not engaging with pulley to run the compressor, get it inspected and if so then request the ac technician to change the AC clutch while attached to compressor, instead of wasting GAS and refilling increasing ur expense.

clutch should cost around 1200-1500

if i get ac service will it fix the issue?or i need ac clutch to be replaced?

thank u so much
let me discuss it with suzuki technician

hello @xenerking
i discussed with technician he told me there can be issue wih evaporator so he told me to get AC service in which evaporator will be cleaned

what you suggest ?about clutch so whenever i broiught my car to suzuki at that time compressor works properly and i am unable to replicate the same issue to suzuki technicians

what u suggest in this case ?

[xenerking]

dear, the evaporator condition can be assessed very easily by taking a peek into cooling box, actually i dont want you to loose the original gas and once after AC system is exposed it very hard to get it back into specs.

the compressor clutch can be assessed with quite ease, drive the car till it gets to normal temperature, then ask any experienced AC tech to asses its condition by manually engaging and disengaging, only needs one wire.

at this time of year in summers every ac tech is keen to do complete service to mint some money out of customers.

rest depends upon your own preferences.
