Our Air Conditioning Services
At Outen Auto Centre, we offer a complete range of Air Conditioning Services designed to keep your vehicle cool, comfortable, and running efficiently. To begin with, every service starts with a detailed assessment to ensure nothing is overlooked.
Comprehensive AC Inspection
First and foremost, we carry out a thorough inspection of your air conditioning system. This allows us to identify potential issues such as leaks, system malfunctions, or reduced efficiency before they become costly problems.
Refrigerant Recharge and Top-Ups
Over time, air conditioning systems naturally lose refrigerant. Therefore, we provide professional refrigerant top-ups and full recharges using the correct refrigerant for your specific vehicle, ensuring optimal cooling performance and system reliability.
Cleaning and Preventative Maintenance
In addition, our service includes cleaning key components such as the evaporator and condenser coils. As dirt and debris can build up over time, this process helps restore efficiency while improving overall system performance.
Odour Removal and Air Quality Improvement
If unpleasant smells are present when your air conditioning is running, we can help. By removing odour-causing bacteria and mould from the system, we improve both cabin air quality and driving comfort.
Air Conditioning System Repairs
When repairs are required, our experienced technicians are fully equipped to handle them. From replacing worn belts and hoses to repairing compressors or evaporators, we ensure your air conditioning system operates smoothly and reliably.

AIR CONDITIONING FAQS
Contrary to popular belief, air conditioning isn’t just for the summer months; it’s beneficial to run it periodically throughout the year, including winter. The dry, dehumidified air from your air conditioning system can clear your windshield much faster than warm air.
Before recharging an empty air conditioning system, we perform a nitrogen pressure test. Nitrogen, an inert gas that constitutes 78% of our atmosphere, is environmentally friendly and ideal for this purpose. This test helps us detect any leaks, which we then aim to precisely locate and provide a detailed repair estimate.
Even if your vehicle’s A/C system has the correct gas pressure, other faults could impair its functionality. We thoroughly test the system to diagnose the issue and provide a complete breakdown of the necessary repairs and their associated costs.
A flashing TPMS light indicates an issue with a sensor or the TPMS itself, necessitating professional attention. However, it’s wise to manually verify your tyre pressures in the meantime to ensure they remain within safe limits.
Before 2017, vehicles typically used R134a refrigerant. However, starting in 2017, new vehicles are legally required to use HFO-1234yf, a refrigerant that emits 98% fewer climate-damaging pollutants, representing a significant advancement for the automotive industry and environmental protection. At our service center, we are equipped to handle both types of refrigerants. If you’re unsure which type your vehicle uses, we can quickly identify it for you.
The friction from driving heats up the tires, which in turn raises the internal pressure.
Tyres naturally lose pressure gradually through minor seepage, either from the valve, around the rim, or through the tyre’s body. While older tyres may deflate faster than new ones, a rapid loss of pressure usually suggests a leak.
