Chap thought there was dye on the condenser rad but I could not see it.
I did notice some bubbling at one of the valves in the aluminium pipe when the blue cap was removed but this soon stopped.

I am aware if air con not used seals can dry and leak. If re-gassed and used do they re-seal?

Are there common faults on the diesel for air con failure?

I think I will buy an ultra violet light, remove front bumper and see if I can see anything. If I cant and it fails again then a mobile air con mechanic as advised will be my next port of call.

So what did the guy actually do?, he diagnosed a faulty relay, then what?
