My air con has not been working for a while now, which has been difficult in the heatwave, so the other day I went to a local chain place (F1 Autocentres) and had it re-gassed. Whoopee! Running nice and cold. Now, today, though, the first time I've used the car since re-gassing, it's back to blowing ambient temperature air. So I'm presuming this is a leak?

Is there a typical place such a leak occurs on the 75s? (Mine's a 2002 Club CDT Tourer). And what kind of place fixes this sort of thing? Mainstream garage or do I need a specialist? Slightly dreading the cost of this, and hoping parts might be obtainable from breakers, but may not be such a great idea for this?
