Hi Everyone.

firat of all, im a new member so if theres a guide for this already dont flame, im just not good with the search tool tongue.gif

i got a 6gen celica a few years ago and finally got it on the road a year ago. i have been a fairly frequent reader of the forum for "how to" guides in a few things.

unfortunately now i am unable to find what im looking for so i decided to finally join in to ask.
im planning to do a loong trip this year to the south, so i turned on the key and decided to check if the AC works.... well it doesnt. after a bit of research i found out the most likely reason why it doesnt work its because it needs a refill (its been at least 6 years since the last refill if not longer)

my local garage does it for 55 quid, i found a couple of videos on youtube that made it seem extremely easy to do the job myself but i dont know if its that simple for a 15 year old car....

so if you know anything that can help me just leave a reply and hopefully ill get the AC ready for the trip at a discount price smile.gif

Cheers

Unless you either plan on doing this all the time, or feel the need to invest in the equipment (vac pump, refrigerant gauges, scale, refrigerant, etc) then its better to take it to a shop.
