Lexus IS. 300h - Lexus IS 300h - AirCon issues - Joe Miller

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone had any info or experience with the following.

My Lexus IS 300h is having some issues with the air on. It will not get cold. I have had it re gassed, and nothing happened. Took it to Lexus and they said it could with be a sensor or a valve in the aircon unit. Sensor could cost £300 ish but if it’s the valves they will have to take the engine out and could cost £1000s.

Has anyone has the same problem or know anywhere that might be able to look at it that doesn’t charge the Lexus garage premiums in Croydon / south London area?

Thanks.
