Hi all.

i know the subject of car air con has been asked before, but can anyone who has had this done recently please give advice as to where to get it done, approximate cost,(Opel Insignia or similar size) and was it successful. ?

Most garages can re-gas your air-con so just pop along to your nearest garage and ask them for a price.

Not much good though if the Compressor unit is faulty or you have a leaky pipe so make sure they do a test beforehand

I was wondering if your car had been to a garage shortly before you noticed the problem with the air-con ?

No. it just didnt work. Only blew hot air.
Apparently the problem with imported UK cars is the lack of use of the air con unit.
The Guy said its best to use it periodically even when its not really required.

The gas contains a lubricant that is why the air con must be switched on it keeps the moving parts lubricated so they do not dry out and seize up

I took our car to a local garage because the aircon didn't work, never had since buying it... just warm air... they said the compressor was faulty and the car needed a new one... cost about 700 euros... we said, no thanks..

Then we had a recall notice to take the car to the Toyota dealer for a faulty switch.. It went in and came out with the switch fixed..

On the way home we noticed that the aircon was blowing cold air!!!! :D ... and still is, wonderful!!!

Any suggestions??
