It deteriorates over time - you can get it re-gassed

Dodgy compressor - or leaking refrigerant are the 2 most likely culprits, but if the main dealer thinks it's fine & you don't then you'd need to take it somewhere else for them to test I guess |

On the 2011, its just the button marked A/C on the left hand side - the amber light should be lit - funnily enough I was thinking the same thing the other day - mine wasn't particularly cold, but then I did notice the A/C button was off. D'oh Current Fleet:-

You will need a “Black light” to see the leak detection fluid as it is Ultra Violet sensitive fluid. David Please let me know if my comments upset you, I may wish to upset you again. |

I have that button, thanks ![]() And light is lit. Makes very little difference though. Calling stealer first thing Monday. If there’s a leak it must be a big one ... ... or the problem is something else as kind folk have suggested. What do I put here then? |
