recharging air con?

[Andy_con]

Could you use this to fill a complete air con system?

Or is it more just a top up thing

Made for top up, remember when I worked there I go training for it, if I've still got pressure in system it should work, but if empty then chance air con is goosed. Tbf most garages do leak test/ refill for around £50- better that then waste money on the can

trouble is we had two different garage do a leak test but both couldn't find the leak.

its odd cost one garage read a fault code that said air con pump was faulty, but once re gassed it pumped out cold air just fine

Don't use these. Air con systems require a specific weight of gas to function correctly. Over filling an A/C system will mean the failsafe kicks in, to prevent the system from being over pressurised.

Has your system had dye injected?

My local tyre place only charge £35 to vacuum and refil the system to the correct wieght.
