Author: Timon2210, Location: PalestinePosted: Sun Jun 24, 2012 12:47 am ---- that can be caused with many things,maybe the pump is not working well,or the filter ( Dryer) that is located in the front area next to the radiators is full of moisutre and need to be replaced,and make sure that the fan kicks in when the A/C on,and you hear a click sound.

Take it to a aircon specialist that actually knows what there doing.

Without the system actually running and working then it's impossible to be sure it has been refilled properly. Just pumping some gas in doesn't do the job

I told them to regass the air con cause that's what I thought it needed. I didn't know about filters, pumps, fans, radiators, leaks at the time. They are suppose 2 check that before regassing right?

A proper aircon service on a working system should take around an hour.
Thats for a vac out including system pressure check, re gas & re oil including UV dye then run up to check the system is working correctly & is still gas tight.
The vac out & pressure check alone should be at least 30 mins.

Leak is

This is very clever, didn't know they did such a thing.
I would asume they would just fit some new pipe or alloy wield the hole or could be a joint that's leaking in that case they'll replace the fixing.
