Yes it was the full works, removed 350 somethings of gas and added 630 somethings and some oil.
I didn’t think it needed it because the air con was always cold but the difference was amazing. It was £90 in total with the MOT so £50 at ATS Sometimes they have a deal on, worth checking your local garage  2023 Defender L663 V8

May be a co incident but I did mine yesterday, I checked that all the windows went up and down.
 Don't make old people mad.
We don't like being old in the first place, so it doesn't take much to  us off.

Windows down!
I think aircon is particularly important in a defender, it helps with keeping the moisture down, a lot of people think that aircon just means cold air, I never turn mine off it’s always on removing moisture and keep those window condensation free. I forgot about groupon always worth a look 2023 Defender L663 V8
