Hi All

How cold shold the Air Con get? I have an MY98 Wagon and while the Air Con "cools" the air it is not "Cold"?

Is there any easy way to check if it is working properly??

Thanks for any help given....

Should feel very cold - uncomfortably so if you hold your hand in front of it. It might need to be regassed. You might get a better rate at an air con specialist?

Aircon works on the pricniple of taking the moisture out of the air and freezing it, thus giving you very cold air. But on a day like today it will just feel cold as it was quite a "dry" day today, even so it should feel colder than the air coming into the car from the outside when your doing 70mph on the motorway etc

Aircon uses a coolant. A form of gas.

Take it to your Subaru dealer and they will re-gas (£120 ish) then check for leaks throughout the system. If the subaru dealer won't/can't do it then take it to a BMW dealer as they definetely will. - The reason I know??? Happened 2 months ago in my M3.

Hope this helps. Once done the aircon at full whack will be bitter cold and you can see your breath - sometimes make my girlfriends nipples go hard!! Really is a superb thing...!!

Go to an aircon specialist in the yellow pages, they will call out and do it where u live normally, i was quoted £120 from the dealer and 'no guarantees if the condenser was faulty' local guy re-gassed it and put die in to show of leaks if they occur - cost £67!!
