Air Con Issues

<< < (2/2)

thermidorthelobster:
Challenger was my first thought but they don't do aircon regassing.  I don't think Nick Kerner does either.  I've taken mine up to Oxfordshire.

rollazuki:
Just a quick tip:

Always use aircon thru the whole year. Demist your windows with it in winter, make sure its used at least once per week.

Otherwise the lubricant in the gas doesnt keep the oil seals damp, they dry up, and leak the gas.

Rolla :wink:

beast5680:
aircon systems naturally leak gas anyway so if yours has never been checked it may just be low on gas

Lewis Bernard:
cheers the help guys, finally worked out what was wrong and saved the cash on taking it to an expert -

relay under the drivers kick panel had disconnected, plugged it back in and now i have nice cool air - just as the 3 week hot spell is about to stop, typical.

chris.hunt22:
When I bought mine it wouldn't work at all, I have the gear to re-gas them at work and just doing that has done the trick, left the system pressurised for 4 hours and it didn't drop at all, 6 months on it's still ice cold (well as cold as a disco air con system goes!!)  Think its about £60 to get it done at a specialist but well worth it, they should tell you if its leaking before gassing it up as they test the system with nitrogen.
