20 1.6 Aircon Re-Gassing? - neenaw
My aircon is working but isn't blowing as cold as it should be and I suspect it needs re-gassing.

Does anyone have any suggestions for places to get it checked in West London?

Is it worth using the Kwik-Fit £35 offer that they're doing at the moment? Has anyone used Kwik-Fit for aircon repairs before?

I think a lot of people have used Kwik Fit for a/c but many of them only once! If it needs re-gassing where has the gas gone? Not much point in getting it refilled if there is a leak..

The first 3 listed are building and commercial but the rest seem to be car related

Kwikfit only charge if they improve the performance of your A/C. If the automated machine they use detects a leak it will not recharge the system, a cheap way of finding out if your A/C is down on gas due to long term natural leakage, or you have a more serious problem which will require the attention of a specialist. If it is still working you are unlikely to have a serious problem.

That pretty much says it all for me!

I've noticed today on the Peugeot website that they offer an aircon checkup for £29.99 and will advise of any faults/leaks in the system. As the car is still under warranty, this might make sense for me as they'll then have to repair it as well!
If it only need regassing then I can use Kwik Fit as they'll be cheaper than the Peugeot dealer!

I suspected my A/C needed regassing. I had this done and little improvement.
I took it to an A/C specialist who put the guages on it and said NO leaks.
I needed a new compressor.
So IMO it is easy for an A/C specialist to check for leaks. Only then will you know if a regas is required.
