Update on the Aircon test and Regas. Unfortunately he is not available for this next meet. He is taking bookings from September 8th onwards. So if you still need it done, I will be making a new list. Please try and put your name down quickly so I can then book him before we lose another Nano Meet date to have it done. The more we can get, the cheaper it will be. I can let you know what the price is if I can get the numbers first. It will definitely be cheaper than normal. Sorry about the delay.

Probably worth saying but unless people have had a new condenser and seals it's not worth booking in. It takes typically 45 mins ish per car including the 30 min vacuum test, if the parts haven't been replaced then it is just going to be a waste of everyones time that is involved. He might book out a whole day and only get gas into a single car.

If you know his normal prices it is worth posting so people have a ballpark. For the standard old gas most independents typically charge around 45.

Jamie.
Good point if the car as it's gas removed and then does not hold after due to a leak, are you still charged, do garages charge if they can not complete the process?

Any reputable place or independent wouldn't charge for a full recharge. They might just ask for a drink to cover their wasted time. Afterall, you aren't getting any gas. I can just imagine there being like 7/8 cars that have knackered condensers waiting and just wasting his time

This is the place that I used after I replaced my condenser.

From what they say, it would appear that they don’t charge if it can’t be re-gassed.

“If we re-gas the system successfully you will be charged for the gas”

Well Jamie, you will be pleasantly surprised that the starting price will be substantially less than what you have quoted, £45.it is obviously according to what takes place on your car . When I arranged for 4 cars, mine, John’s Wedgwood Blue and his grandsons mini, along with his mother’s Citroen , it was no where near what you quote, even though the Citroen was a problem. To show you how fair he is, because John’s car was ok when connected up and tested, he did not charge. Don’t be so doom laden.
