Air Conditioning recharge.

Anyone know what the cost is from the stealer and indy shop for AC recharge for a 955TT?


Thanks for your help.

Are you needing a full recharge? Is there a leak or are you just low?

I suspect just low.

It takes a bit long (10-15 minutes) to get cool.

I'm the second owner of the car 2006, 123k miles.

I just went down to the parts store and bought a can and filled it up. Unlike most things on these vehicles this is easy to get to.

That would probably be my first attempt too. Pretty cheap try if it doesn't work then take it to a shop to get it checked out.

Brrrrrr. It's cold in my 955 TT.

Went down to autoparts store and for $39.99 picked up a can of AC pro.

Looked at a few youtube videos and jumped in.

The part that took the longest was finding the low pressure AC port. Some places said passenger side, but it is on the drivers side.

With that mix up actual time was about 30 minutes.

AC gets colder a lot faster and for $39.99 is well worth it.

I would recommend it to anyone.
