Hello, Can anyone please tell me what is the correct gas for my car? Please see my Car details at the bottom near my name. Also, how much gas does my car take? What is the best place to get the Air Con serviced and gas top up? It's been 4 years (17500 miles) and the Air Con has never been serviced or topped up. It is making some hissing noise every 40-50 seconds (for 2-3 seconds)... is this normal? Doesn't sound normal to me though? Any help please... Thank you in advance. |

Your car will use the new expensive type of gas. This is not usually available other than at agents. Cost is likely to be ~£200. (not a mistype). The noise is not normal. There is a history of leaks on these cars. I have had the compressor replaced on mine, and I'm not convinced that it is working properly. |

These were the sounds I heard when my aircon last broke down. Luckily was still in warranty so was fixed by dealers. Would probably cost about £1000 for parts and labour. |
