Air Conditioning,

How often should Air Conditioning In the car be re-gassed, or should it be left alone if running okay.

I’ve seen it recommended to be done yearly but just had mine done for first time in 7 years
It’s reckoned that the molecules in the gas are so small that there will always be a loss over time

Done it twice in 19 years

Hi Jules. I have had the diesel done twice while I have had it.19 years old this September
The KV6 I had done last year when I had put a new condenser in , and I think my son had it done once since 2009 when he bought it. My mate with the Wedgwood colour has only had his done with me once in 20 years. The moral as you said, if it ain’t broke you can not mend it. Put the controls on Lo and the fan in the car on fast,, and if it’s freezing cold, it’s ok.
