Hi have got an 2004 TDCI model and over the last few weeks noticed that the air con wasn't working as weel as it should.
Brought it to a garage to get re gased which seem to have worked. But then the next day it stopped again. The garage said that it was the condinsor that had gone, I thought if this happen that it wouldn't work at all if it was re gas.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks for your help.Did you have a leek from the air con pump or was it just the condinsor? How much did it cost for your condinsor because every where I am going are telling me how difficult it is to get one and giving me prices that keep increasing.
