Automotive Air Conditioning

What do I do if my car air conditioning isn't working?

If your car air conditioning seems to not be working properly, there could be a refrigerant leak. All car air conditioners use refrigerant, which, if leaked into the atmosphere, will contribute to global warming. By law, if a leak exists, all faulty parts must be repaired or replaced before it is refilled with refrigerant.

An automotive licensed technician is the best person to service or repair you car air conditioning. They have the right qualifications and are licensed to identify the cause of the leak and repair it to minimise the risk of future leaks.

You can find an authorised business to service and/or repair your car air conditioning on this website. Select "Automotive Air Conditioning" from the "Authorised Business" dropdown menu and enter your postcode. If no business is located within your postcode tick the “Include surrounding areas” box to find a business in nearby areas.
