Hi All, the air con has finally given up the ghost on Esmeralda, our beloved '98 V70 T5 SE Auto (160k miles, silver). I know it's a big job to get at the evaporator etc and will cost well in excess of the "book value" but that is of no concern as she is in beautiful nick and now getting rarer. I live near to Bedford, can anyone point me to someone locally who can do the magic with dyes and stuff to :-a) find the leak(s) and then replace the bits and indeed any other potential failures while the dash is removed. She's routinely serviced by a very good chap in Hertfordshire who is a Volvo specialist but he's not that minded to do the A/C. Also just as a rough guide, assuming it is the evap and other bits of pipe etc behind the dash roughly what would we be looking at to get the A/C back to normal in terms of time and bits? 3-4 days labour? Bits £1K? Cheers for any guidance and comments. Jim
