Yey Finally got my Disco back

[dazliss]

Well Six days after the clutch gave way I finally have the old girl back, good as new. Just gotta get used to the cluth bitting at the bottom of the pedal now instead of the top :lol:

While driving around to day I saw a sign for a "free" air con check. The air con has never worked right since I got the car so I thought lets go see what the catch is. I walked in to the garage and the asked the guy when I could book it in for he said drive it in now and we will do it while you wait. Anyway the mechanic comes up to the car takes off the caps and presses the valves. all that happend was a very faint psssst. I could tell imediatly that there was no gas in the system as I used to work in a car factory and had seen these things filled. He said he would need to do a pressure test to ensure there was no leaks... here comes the catch thinks I, but no he tells me that a complete check will only cost £25 if the system is sound he will purge/ clean and refill the system for £52. I have seen Garages in this area charging three times that price. so I am thinking £80 is a bit of a bargin. Anyway he says he needs 30 mins to run the test and fill so I leave him to it. Half an hour later I walk back just as he is checking the airflow out of the fascia vents and its like being in a blizzard. As he is just finishing up I go into reception to pay the bill. That'll be £52.80 Sir. seems that as I had everything done together I only had to pay the one price.
