Hi Guys,
I bought an Hyundai I10 in 2013 and everything was fine until about Sept 2018. Then my AC stopped cooling, I dont use may car much to date in 2020 it has only done about 30000km.
In my previous car Santro I dud not need to refill the ac gas for about 7 years. Anyhow I took it to Popular the authorized dealer and service center. They claimed to do a level 1 repair/service and charged me over 3.5k.
Six months later no cooling at all. I took it back and asked them what happened, they denied having done the previous service and this time they did another level 1 service and actually changed a part, (I don't know if they actually did, as it is a workshop they probably have a lot of old parts lying about. They charged Rs 7850. The cheating beggars also did the disinfectant trick by spraying that into the vents.
Ten months later the ac is not cooling again. I took it to a local ac place, they said it could cost RS10k or more, I have no choice as the authorized place is cheating me all the time. Anyway they filled it with gas, and within a month of almost no use (just before the lockdown) the cooling is not working at all.
Any ideas please, I know nothing about cars. Thankyou, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Ps The local place changed the filter and it was absolutely filthy, I think the authorized place did not change it. I have not given it to the local place yet, as if the lockdown is extended i will not have a car so waiting for that to be over.
