I've just had mine done at kwik fit for £35, usually £45, but I needed two tyres so got the discount. Takes about 45mins for the system check then re gas.

Well it was approx 45 mins. There was no cooling at all from my aircon, but now its icy cold even without recirculated air. The unit just plugs on and is fully automated and will only re gas once the vacuum checks have passed, well thats what the kwikfit guy said.
