Free Aircon check at Halfords |
|
Saw this a few mins ago ... Are there any reasons not to give it a go?
Quote:Free Air Con Check
Did you know your air conditioning loses charge every year, making it less efficient and making your car warmer? Our air conditioning services keep your air con working properly by checking and topping up the refrigerant levels. This also involves cleansing the air circulation system to maintain icy cold air output and get rid of any nasty odours - and the harmful bacteria that cause them.
Main car dealers can charge the earth for this service, but at Halfords we can do it for you for a competitive price - meaning you can keep your cool and get rid of that wet-dog smell for less!
*Please note Free Air Con Check is not applicable in Halfords Autocentres
What happens?
We now offer a FREE air con check, we will check the pressure, quantity of gas, make sure there are no leaks and check your refrigerant levels to see if they need to be topped up for optimal performance. If they do need topping up, you can purchase all of the air con essentials from store to recharge at home or, you can book in for our air con recharge service and we can take care of it for you.
Our in-store professionals can offer you the following services:
Air Con Recharge you for only £50 (€55)
Air Con Recharge and Clean Service for only £60 (€65). .

No reason not to. I've used Halfords for MOTs and free checks previously and never had a problem. However, I wouldn't be comfortable for them do anything other than basic stuff like replacing brake pads etc.
They were doing free MOTs a few months back with any purchase from one of their stores. I bought two air fresheners to get the vouchers and both the RRS and the wife's Corsa sailed through.
Mind you, the RRS spun a main bearing 3 days later but I don't think I can blame them for that Kev

I used the groupon offer for ATS a couple of years ago, £30-35 or something along those lines.
Can't see anything currently on offer though
