With the car nearly 6 yrs old and I have had the car 3 years do you think it is time to get the air con re-gassed and how much will it cost?.

Yes and about £60 if there are no leaks

Got in touch with my dealer and the cost is £35 including VAT.

cheap. does it include a leak test prior to re-gassing? if so that's a proper bargain

Im not a fan of saying this but after three satisfied visits:

Its worth checking out Kwik-Fit...

For A/C re-gassing they are very competitive (Think its about £30 at the mo)

Its all controlled from a machine so TBH theres not much they can do wrong... i *think* the machine checks for leaks too..

yes the machine on auto purges the system (high and low hoses conected) by runing vacuum for 30min, then it waits 5min, if the vacuum reading doesnt change, then it fills (through the low) untill correct presure is obtaines (i think 25psi) it also adds the correct amount of oil

love those machine, basiclaty conect, press 1 button and wait. results, perfect AC (did it on my the 28th of december {a day after i got it})
