    A/C Perfection - Brrrrrr

    Treated the S60 to an a/c service this morning....results speak for themselves.



    The system was quite healthy from last year when it was serviced....a total 930g recovered and replaced with the 1000g of refrigerant.

    May not be the quickest.....but am I the coldest? lol

    Mine was serviced last year. Mind you, 70 grams of gas down is nothing and I'm suprised it made such a difference.....

    The air conditioning/climate control on the p2's is fantastic. I really suffered on Tuesday in the R, as the aircon is totally out of action. In fact, none of my 3 cars have working aircon.................

    It needs to be, have you felt how hot the leather seats get when they've been parked in the sun all day!

    If the car is going to parked in the sun for more than a few hours, I always throw one of those silver foil sun shields across the screen. Amazing how much they keep the interior cool on a hot day.
