Common symptoms

  • The air is warm even on maximum
  • It cools less well than it used to
  • A noise or vibration when the A/C engages
  • A damp or musty smell in the cabin
  • The heater no longer heats
  • Slow or ineffective defrosting

You do not need to know which one applies: describe what you notice and the garage will do the diagnosis.

What changes the price

We do not publish an average price: we do not yet have enough real data to give an honest one. Here is what makes up the bill instead.

Recharge or repair
A recharge alone is the cheapest service — but if the system leaked, it will leak again. A good garage looks for the leak before recharging.
Finding the leak
Locating a leak takes time: dye, nitrogen or an electronic detector. It is a job in itself and often billed separately.
Which part
A seal, a hose, a condenser or a compressor span a very wide price range. The compressor is the heaviest repair in the system.
Refrigerant type
Newer vehicles use a different and more expensive refrigerant than older ones, which directly affects the price of a recharge.

When an inspection is needed

Recharging without finding the leak usually means paying twice. If the cold faded gradually, ask for a diagnosis rather than a straight recharge.

Common questions

Why is my A/C blowing warm?

Most often because the refrigerant level has dropped, which means there is a leak — a sealed circuit does not empty on its own. Other causes exist, such as an electrical fault or a compressor that will not engage.

How does FixMyCarQuote work?

You describe the repair your vehicle needs — it takes a few minutes. Our team looks for garages able to do the work and passes them your request. You compare the offers that come back and choose. It is free and there is no obligation.

Do you cover my area?

Give us your postal code and we will look for garages in your area able to do the work. Availability depends on where you are, the repair, and which garages have capacity when you ask — if we find no one, we will tell you plainly.

What we don't promise

We don't guarantee a number of offers, a response time, or a saving. We pass your request to garages and show you what they say. If nothing comes back, we'll tell you.
