Over time, your car’s air conditioning system starts to lose refrigerant gas, typically through small issues like leaks and worn-down seals. When this gas becomes depleted, your air conditioning system will struggle to cool your vehicle properly, blowing out lukewarm air instead.
By getting a regular air conditioning regas service undertaken on your vehicle, not only will you restore the cold air from your AC, you’ll also maximise fuel efficiency and reduce strain on your vehicle’s compressor.
There are several signs that your car could benefit from an air conditioning regas. These include:
Air conditioning system blowing out lukewarm air
Air coming from the system smells bad
Strange noise coming from the AC fan when turned on
Vehicle windows taking longer to demist
If you notice any of these signs, an air conditioning recharge is likely required. Our expert mechanics can inspect your vehicle and confirm this for you, just to make sure that the AC is actually the issue at hand.
