TBH I thought it was going to be dearer.
Always nice to hear of a positive result!Got it recharged for £30 in Halfords today. Nice.
I read somewhere probably on this thread "use it or lose it" I didn't use it. There was some geezer in a very loud Subaru also waiting for a re charge. Surely he didn't have a leak as well?
I think they mean the extra £10 is to flush and sterilize the system before rechargeJust rang my local Halfrauds and they confirm that it costs £30 if no clean (???) is required or £40 if a clean is required.
Their website is still saying £49.99.
I booked mine a week in advance.Only snag is, its first come first served, so no appointments. It means hanging around for ages in this awful heat waiting your turn. Apparently, they are really busy doing recharges.
I will try and get there early tomorrow morning.
Nice. How much Mike.I took mine to Kwik fit as they do the money back guarantee. It had been dead for over a year due to not being used enough, so I had the recharge and anti bacterial clean, works a treat now. And yes it will lose its coolant if you don't use it.

Just come back from Halfrauds and got seen to immediately. Guy picked up a can, walked to my FL and connected the short hose which was connected to the can and after switching on the air conditioning he said, "look, it is almost full, I won't be able to improve on that". So no recharge done.
So now I am asking is there anything wrong with my air con. It definitley puts out cold air but not nearly as cold as it has been previously.
It certainly cannot cope with the current weather we are having. I have to open windows.
Could there be something wrong or was this guy just an untrained, unknowing oaf?
I have had the car for around 5 years and I have never had the air con recharged in that time.
No, literally just took a can with a short hose to the car. Nothing else.
how you figure unless there is a leak. Here we don't us AC in a car for about 6-7 months in a year. and our house ac only gets used maybe 2-3 months in a year.I took mine to Kwik fit as they do the money back guarantee. It had been dead for over a year due to not being used enough, so I had the recharge and anti bacterial clean, works a treat now. And yes it will lose its coolant if you don't use it.
