Default air condition issue

The weather is getting hotter and hotter. I turned on my A/C one day and notice there is no cool air coming out at all. Anybody has the same problem with your s2k from before? If I want to refill the coolant for the a/c, which shop should I go to in burnaby?!

The S uses R134a and any shop should be able to do it.

But the underlying issue is why. Before spending $75 to get the A/C recharged, first get it tested to see and fix where the leak is.

you need to turn it on once in a while or it wont. thats why when you hit defrost on the windsheild it will come on automatic.

LOL I had a MX-5 with no a/c for less than a year and was not able to live with it through even 1 summer! S2000 is a MUCH more fun car than MX-5 anyway, so I don't miss those days, haha...
