I recently (10 days ago) had my car in for a service and was told halfway through it that my aircon was reading 12 degrees. Slightly high. They wanted me to have the recon for the stately sum of £60. I politely declined and told them I would leave it for a little while. On mulling it over I thought it would be better to have it done. On checking the internet prices I noticed ats euromaster were doing it for £28.79. Nice price, considering what Volvo wanted.
Yesterday I went into my local kwikfit to see if they would price match this. The chap said that they don't price match but would do it for £35 . I agreed. He took the car in and came back 5 minutes later with a thermometer in his hand showing me a reading of 5.9. He said that it didn't require lowering as he probably wouldn't get it much lower. He also said that he thought someone was trying it on. Hats off to my local kwikfit who could have charged me and I would have been no wiser. I will definitely be using them again.
