Not mobile, but i have used a great air con specialist in Arbor Lane, Winnersh a few times now. Cheap and they know what they're doing.

Don't know what they're called but just popped in a few times over the last few years, twice with 911's and once with my 540. Just turned up at 5pm on a weekday evening and politely asked if they could squeeze in a recharge and they were most helpful, one time they gave me a partial charge and said to run around for a month and then come back to see how much had leaked (negligible) and the other two times they did a full charge. Partial cost me £30, full cost me £60.

As you turn in to Arbor Lane off Wokingham Road (between Halfwits and Sainsbury's) they are about 100yds down on the left hand side.

There's a great place by Iceland off the IDR. I don't have the details handy, but I'll look if you want. They did a major service on my AC for £750 last year, next best quote was £1100! Good job too.

At the risk of getting flamed, you all know you can re-gas yer air-con yerself with the kit from Halfords...? Once you've bought the "pack" with the gauge on it, you only need to buy the refills next time....
It's so easy it's like checking yer tyre pressures!

This link is really long, so might wrap on your screen....

Thanks LordLanky, but I'm not sure it's working 100% and want it checked by a pro. There's a chance I'll need to claim against Peugeot for it...

It's 4.5 years old, but had a lot of work and inspections done on it while under warranty - I was never happy it was fixed properly by Peugeot back then
