Air con re-gas???
#3
I have a 90MY Legacy 2.2GX saloon which I am fitting aircon to provided by Howard at HDC Subaru £224 inc postage, seemed fair enough
The compressor says refrigerant R12 to be used. I have just spoken to a 'friends friend' who is in the trade. He says R12 is now illegal and that they use R409A as a replacement. He will pressure test to 200 bar with nitrogen and if system OK then fill with refrigerant & appropriate oil for £80.
I had been told £45, local Ford dealer does A/C service for £70 + vat, but only with the other type - R134? - I think...
So seems to be in the right ballpark!
Anyway wife is looking forward to getting some 'central-cooling'
