Air Con
« on: 29 February 2012, 14:59:38 »
Afternoon all, I haven't been on in a while so I hope everyone is keeping well and not suffering too badly in these grim times..anyway - other day noticed a curious sound from air con compressor. It sounds like a kind of distant tinkling/gurgling..plus air con is not working really. Does this sound like a knackered compressor? Or is it a re-gas effort? If anyone has heard something similar it will give me a place to start!

Low gas made a gurgling sound in my Vectra, might be worth getting a re-gas before doing anything else.

If you go to Kwicktit their A/C machine detects any leaks in you're system,it does'nt say where but it saves you wasting you're money on the re-gas :y
