My ac isn't working so assume a regas is in order. But looks like 1 of the pipes on the left of the engine bay is, or has leaked. it's 1 of the rubber ones so can't see if it's split or the seal itself has gone. So to the questions, were do I get replacement pipes/seals from? Or do I just take it to an ac specialist and they can test it, soure pipes and seals and sort the lot.
Now it's getting hotter the combination of hot weather and black leather interior is making the car hard work for motorway journeys.
Cars a 97 coty pre facelift auto. And I'm in the Preston area.
Cheers

Yep, AC place. If it is leaking from the soft pipe, they could be as well making up a pipe rather than getting a replacement from Mitsubishi. Still worth checking the dealer price though, they are sometimes surprisingly low instead of high!

Cheers for the advice. Took it to my local garage,they vac tested it and regassed it, no leaks and now works great. Completes the car, specially now the 2 weeks of British summer is here.
