Yet another Air Con woe......

<< < (2/5) > >>

Boothy:
Just had a call from the dealers about my air con.
£190 so far for the diagnostic, part and re-gas. Faulty pressure switch or something? Although they can't guarantee that it will defo be the problem it needs fixing before they can highlight another fault, if there is one. Fingers crossed.

Boothy:
Right. The dealers have now charged me £190.00 to tell me my compressor is fooked. Great stuff. There saying the pressure valve was faulty and the only way they could check the compressor was to replace this first. Can anyone on who's in the trade confirm that. It seems a bit ridiculous that they can't check a compressor without the other part and whats the odds on both going faulty at the same time!

Not a happy bunny :sad1: :fighting:

Gene Hunt:
Why didn't they just ''borrow'' the part to check that it was at fault rarther than replace it first ?.

Boothy:
God only knows mate. The service manager is due to ring me tomorrow but I'm not impressed.
 They said it was leaking gas even though it was blowing fine and has been for ages. I them that the system just doesn't kick in when you press the button and surely the pressure switch wouldn't cause that. I still think its related to the electric. Too much of a coincidence after the jet wash and the odds on  compressor and switch going simultaneously when everything was working ok must be one in a million.

Britishlion:
Any news Boothy ???
