Pollen filter replacement – from £30 including filter cost and labour charge.
Please note that depending on the filter chosen (there are usually three types – a standard mechanical filter, a mechanical filter with active carbon and a mechanical and antibacterial filter) and the make and model of the car, the price may vary dramatically. For example a 2009 Renault Megane requires removal of the clutch pedal to replace the filter whilst other vehicles have this filter easily accessible. If the vehicle is used in very dusty conditions, replacement may be required more frequently, even once a year (e.g. pick-up vehicles used by farmers, vans used on construction sites etc.).

Call-out charge applicable if there is a leak in the system and you decide not to have a Nitrogen leak test carried out. It is illegal to regas a vehicle which clearly has a leak in the system as R134A is known to have adverse effect on the climate (whilst it doesn’t deplete the ozone layer, it is classified as a greenhouse effect gas). Call-out charge is £20

Nitrogen leak testing. We would fill the system with nitrogen – a gas which is not harmful and it occurs naturally – in fact about 78% of air on earth is made up of Nitrogen so when it escapes from the air conditioning system it makes no harm at all. This will allow us to inspect where the gas is escaping and establish the correct course of action – it may be a seal that is faulty, one of the filler valves, the condenser (the single most common cause of refrigerant loss in vehicles) or even the evaporator under the dashboard. Nitrogen leak testing £45.

If you have more than one vehicle in the household and would like to carry out the air conditioning service and recharge on an extra car or van, the price of the second and subsequent cars will be reduced by £10.
