My garage did the repair on the condenser, they did do a full, proper recharge which is why I thought under these circumstances, it would be all right to use one of the kits as a top-up. I know that they're not good to use under most circumstances, I just didn't really feel like booking the car in again but it sounds like maybe I should.
