Just got home after a 200 mile journey. I felt the air-com wasn't quite coping adequately. It was certainly cooling the car and I tried it on both fresh air and recirc. The AC's never been serviced since new and I presume it's not punctured, otherwise it wouldn't cool at all. The filter's -

Just fitted a genuine Subaru air con kit to my 1998 Impreza, now the installation manual states how much refridgerant needs to go into the system, but makes no mention of addig oil (PAG oil I think it is). Now the system is new and therefore dry except the compressor, which I managed to drain just -
