    It is around £50 in my local area ... I think. Although, it may be a case of new pipes etc which would add more to this ...

    This would be best posted in the motoring thread, or im sure a mod will come along in the near future and kindly move this post over there :-)

    The garage I use charge £55 a time to regas. But they're in Exeter, not Wilts, sorry

    You can purchase the necessary gas refill in Halfors for about 30 pounds and do it yourself, not very difficult

    Anyone know of someone that will come to Perth to regas my air con?
    Weather is getting better and I have realised that it is warm air blowing out instead of cold :confused:

    I know that Kwik Fit do air con recharging.

    Also, unless you know what you are doing, I woudlnt do a DIY job. Every car is different ... some manufacturers need specialist tools too.

    I had my peugeot re-charged for £60 last year - it was money well spent as it's ice cold now

    Got my Aircon checked out I was told that Aircon does not normally need regassing. It is a sealed unit.

    It was a faulty compressor. Vauxhall want £760 to supply and fit a new one.

    Guess its open windows from now on.

    If you are near Lincoln, the Suzuki garage charge £45+vat for a full air con service, including drain and refill gas and disinfect the system, check for leaks etc etc.
