    Seldom trust the dealers but the car is 4 years old with no record of air con service so I thought ‘why not’? I know the gas contains lubricant for seals and bearings so although it was working I got it done a few days before driving to southern Spain. Wouldn’t you just know it? No cold air. Put it on intense today and blowing warm air in 22c. Tampin’ as we say in South Wales and Alicante.

    Rang Sinclair Bridgend at 4.45 to get furious to be be told by some over friendly lady who asked if I wanted to book a car in for service or check on a car already there and was therefore surprised I wanted to complain that the guy I needed to speak to is busy but he’ll phone you back. Needless to say the cheque wasn’t in the post either.

    So now I’m cross with myself for trusting these overcharging incompetents and furious they couldn’t be ***** to ring me back. Still, I’ve learned my lesson. They don’t put a receptionist and a service Booker inner between you and the fitters for nothing. It’s so they can overcharge you and keep you from talking to the monkey in jungle language.

    If anyone has any suggestions on a temporary solution I’m listening.

    Thanks

    Open the window, enjoy the warmth, stop bragging you're in Spain, and be grateful it's not 32c?

    You could try the kwik fit. They guarantee it will be cooler. Cheap and cheerful and if it is a leak in your system it will be free, well free for the regas, expensive for the repairs.
    Another thing i was told years ago was that if ambient temperature was below something like 7 degrees celsius the gas or system doesn’t take.

    The only time my aircon played up with the same symptoms was on a virtually new 12 plate A6. Turned out it was a faulty aircon sensor/valve up near the front of car/main radiator. Only suggesting as a possible cause.........
