Can anyone reccomend an air con specialist near Camberley?

I changed the HP valve last year, had it gassed. Lasted around 3-4 months. Better than previously when it was just a few weeks.

But I want it looked at by someone who knows what they are doing, anyone used one around here who was good?

Now, if we had a recommended section...

[tunnie]

We already do

[panto mo ....oh never mind

[Sir Tigger KC]

Here's a few!

Here's a few! 

Yeah I've done that, but ideally looking for some personal feedback/reviews

[Sir Tigger KC]

Fair does!   

It is tricky though.  I had mine regassed last year and was told that there were no leaks or anything wrong with the system and it lasted all of 3 weeks! 

I probably should have taken it back, but had lost confidence in them.... 

Maybe if anyone in the Sarf East or (Plummy voice on) Hhome Cowntees (Plummy voice off) knows a good mobile aircon guy, we could book him for Terb's High Wycombe meet!

Same. Vx Camberley said it was just valve leaking, so replaced that myself. (Saving load of dosh)

It lasted well, but there must be another leak somewhere 

Some of the yell companies have reviews, but you just don't know how good they are.

Tempted by these folk, If they cover my area: http://www.vehicools.co.uk

I might have another go this summer, but I think I'll use a specialist like the one you've posted rather than a tyre shop with an air con machine in the corner.     

Still they only charged me £30 so I wasn't too upset.

That's thing, most places are tyre shacks or garages with just a bottle to top them up. Hence a proper aircon only place is needed.

Think will ring them tomorrow

Virtually all will use the automated machines to vac, hold, inject PAG and R134a

So not worth specialist? Need someone to identify why it fails though 

[Mr.OmegaMan]

I found something like this LINK useful in finding leaks only downside you have to do this at night ideally but might save you a few £££'s if it's something obvious like the condenser 

Presuming there was/is UV dye in your system 

[tunnie]

Yeah, think it's green.

Could try that, think I may have one already. Might have a dig around.

I was given this guys name by a chap on here a while back. I never used him but was told very good. I have just looked at his area of coverage and is just outside camberley but you should be able to arrange a meet.

Hope this helps
