Which just goes to prove that your air-con place weren't that competant, you'd have that the 'professionals' would have had a quick look at the simple obvious things first.
Well done! You can now justify spending £900 elsewhere on your car!!!  ;D  ;D

It's nice when, occasionally it's the simple (and cheap) fix that works. Well done.  :y

Glad to hear its fixed ok.

By the way you can get to the compressor connector from underneath (run front wheel onto a block or ramp) & u can reach easy.
