Air Con (or CON)

It seems my air conditioning on my 2007 110 has gone pop.

The condenser (in front of the rad), has lost it's bottom rung of cooling fins, resulting in a leak from the condenser, and me being hot. What made me hotter was the £1100 Land Rover want to fix it. Does any of you guys have a good source, down in the South West (i'm in East Sussex) that you could recommend and that won't charge such ridiculous prices? Any help would be most appreciated.

Cheers in advance.

Hi James,
There's a car aircon company in Edenbridge that may be able to either help you or point you in the right direction. Their website is www.vehvac.co.uk. I used them recently to re gas my disco. Hope this helps?

its probably the same as a TD5 unit and you can probably source the unit aftermarket or otherwise from anywhere...then its just a good garage or fit yourself and go and get it regassed Mike
