Hi Gents,

My mercedes 560sec is now close to concourse level.

1 owner from new, 43k km.

Problem is, i think i have a v slow leak in the aircon system.

Was regassed last summer and no cold air.

Any idea of a solid specialist in Surrey? I am near Purley.

Is Mercedes Brooklands any good for cars of this age (1989)?

Thanks in advance.

Vehvac in Edenbridge were well able to deal with my W124 aircon and have long standing experience with both factory and dealer fit diavia systems.

Reader Air in (I think) Guilford are highly regarded and familiar with cars of this vintage.

Brooklands serviced my 1990 w201 every year before I bought it in 2015 and seem to have shown it appropriate care, respect and expertise.

I used IN auto in the end and Pedro fixed my aircon. He was available immediately. No fuss. Put in the effort.

They have a nice facility.

He was impressed with my car wink

Biased moi?
