Got the cherokee in Nov and ever since have been going to have the air con serviced so i knew where i was with it, Today whilst in Malton shopping Mrs Fish says why not go back Pickering way and book in for air con service we had seen signs before, I had better mention it seemed OK, However i do as i am told and called in at  Oaktree Garage Pickering, I asked for a price and when he could do a full service on my air con, Quote (£55.00) He lifted the bonnet and had a good look and get this -----He said the filter is not very old so he said it wasnt really worth doing oil and filter Etc, However he could check whole system, Pressure , and top up £10 per 100 gram, I asked when it could be done! Ill do it now! Result 20 mins later, Used just over 100 grams checked all outlet temps  7* deg improvement,, Checked drains and sprayed some deodoriser into it, Leak test, Lovely icy cold and sweet How much!£20 yes twenty quid all in job done and VERY EFFICIENT  highly recomended,

Had a Citroen C5  a few years ago with a leaking suspension ball for the mad hydrolastic suspension thingy without getting too complicated. Needless to say my local Citroen Dealership quoted me well over £400 to have the pair changed even though only one was sweating ! Got a second opinion from my local Garage. £40 to fit two new basically washers. Job done ! There are God Guys out there its finding them that's the problem ...........

I think ours will need doing in the near future as you have to put it almost full on before you can feel any effect.
Sometimes I pretend to be normal, but it gets boring so I go back to being me.
