When your car’s air conditioning stops blowing cold, every trip feels uncomfortable. At Medway Vehicle Services in Medway, we get your air con working properly again with a quick, simple re-gas.
We remove the old gas, test the system for leaks, and refill it with the correct refrigerant for your car. Then we check the temperature at the vents so you can feel the difference before you leave.

Your visit starts with a quick check of the air conditioning system so we can set expectations and answer any questions. We then recover any remaining gas, pull a deep vacuum to check for leaks, and confirm the system holds pressure.
Once it passes, we refill with the correct refrigerant, R134a or R1234yf, to the correct level for your make and model. Where appropriate, we can add compressor oil and, if requested, UV dye for leak tracing just ask.
Finally, we run the air conditioning, confirm output temperature at the vents, and show you the results so you leave confident in the work we’ve done.
We begin with a brief inspection and a friendly chat about the symptoms you’ve noticed. Next, we recover any remaining refrigerant and assess the system before recharging it, then run a vacuum and hold a test to confirm there are no leaks.
If the system holds, we refill with the correct gas, R134a or R1234yf, depending on your vehicle, and set the charge to the manufacturer’s specification. We’ll add lubricant and, if requested, UV dye to make any future diagnostics easier.
To finish, we check pressures, verify vent temperature, ensure the compressor engages properly, and hand the car back with a clear explanation of what we found and did.
You don’t need to guess which gas your car takes. Many older cars use R134a, while many newer models are filled with R1234yf, and some hybrid vehicles have specific requirements.
We identify the correct refrigerant for your vehicle by make, model, and year before we fill the system. Using the correct gas matters for cooling performance, system longevity, and safety, so we always check first and proceed only once you’re happy.
We’re a local Medway team that believes in clear communication and no surprises. Our technicians explain each stage of the service in plain language, agree on the work with you first, and provide a simple handover when the job is done.
Because we work with many makes and models, we can help whether you drive a family car, a city runabout, or a larger vehicle.
And if you want to get other jobs done at the same time, we can coordinate routine work such as MOT tests, brake checks, tyres, or diagnostics, so you make one visit and leave with everything sorted.
If the air no longer feels cold, cooling takes longer, or the windscreen fogs more often, the system may be low on refrigerant. A quick check of vent temperature and system pressure will confirm whether a re-gas is due.
Yes. We determine the correct gas for your vehicle and charge the system accordingly. We never guess, and we always explain what we’re using and why.
If the system cannot hold a vacuum, it likely leaks. We won’t proceed with a full charge. Instead, we explain what this means, add UV dye to help trace the issue if appropriate, and plan the next step with you.
We top up PAG oil (the system lubricant) when needed to protect the compressor. UV dye is available on request for easier leak tracing. We’ll discuss both with you before we proceed.
If your A/C isn’t keeping up, let’s fix it. Book your air conditioning re-gas in Medway today. We’ll handle the checks, refill the system with the correct refrigerant, and send you back on the road feeling comfortable again.
