Everyone will say yes bin it, but I'll get in there quick and say i love my AC, been using it a lot recently. You can relocate without loosing the AC but not right to the front ;)

Everything was fine till you mentioned TT mate..

The aircon is usually removed to remove weight and yes there is a good few kgs in the compressor. It does have an advantage in the summer traffic though and I'm glad the little japanese guy left it in the 5E I'm driving - Bonus!

Just remember to have it professionally emptied first if you do want to remove it. It is illegal and dangerous to work on a filled air con system.

Really. Yes you can just release it into the atmosphere but it is 100% illegal and can do some damage to you. Any work done on a full air con system is illegal if it means that gas may be released into the atmosphere.

Naturally you got a licensed, trained technican to drain the system otherwise you could be fined heavily by the department of the environment. Two points to add:

1) Probably best to rephrase it so as the authorities don't hunt your ass down via your IP address.

2) Don't come crying to us when the ozone layer falls out of the sky and you get third degree burns from the midday sun.

lol :haha:

im having flash backs of the aircon removal day i remember that it wasnt me who emptied it a mystical figure entered the garage and showed me his license for air con removal and he emptied it for legal reasons and disappeared in a puff of the gas and that was the last time i ever seen him.

I hope you will visit to apply the cream to my burns :haha:
