Big Mark Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Can anyone recommend somewhere that can carry out a check and repair of my air con? Preferable either in or near Rugby or Swadlincote Had it recharged last year but stopped working this year so there must be a leak somewhere. I want somewhere with a recommendation as girlfriend went somewhere to get hers done recently, £350 and two visits later they're not sure if it's 100% or leaking so been told to wait and see. So I'm not going there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Can't recommend anyone in Rugby but if you can get to B'ham go and see Ibrar, he does aircon refills and can also pressure test the ac system and fill with an illuminius die to show where there are any leaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraP-Z Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Remove it The only time I use mine is to demist windows...which isn't very often. Im surprised at how expensive it is to refill these things though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mark Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Black leather seats get rather toasty in summer so really want working air con Can't recommend anyone in Rugby but if you can get to B'ham go and see Ibrar, he does aircon refills and can also pressure test the ac system and fill with an illuminius die to show where there are any leaks I didn't know Ibrar did this. I need to book the car in with him to have my rear wheels refurbed but wasn't going to do this until august when the girlfriend is away for a week and I can steal her car.
