Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Most vehicles need AC regassing every 2-3 years as refrigerant naturally permeates through system seals over time. However, if you notice reduced cooling performance, it may indicate a leak requiring immediate attention. Regular annual checks can help identify issues early and maintain optimal performance.

Common signs include weak or warm air from vents, unusual noises when AC is running, unpleasant odours, visible moisture or fogging inside the vehicle, and the AC taking longer than usual to cool the cabin. Any of these symptoms warrant professional inspection.

Yes, leak detection is a crucial part of our AC service. We use UV dye, electronic leak detectors, and pressure testing to identify even small leaks in hoses, seals, and components. This ensures we address the root cause of any refrigerant loss.

A standard AC service including inspection, regassing, and testing typically takes 1-2 hours. More complex repairs involving component replacement may take longer. We'll provide an accurate time estimate after our initial diagnostic assessment.

Several factors can cause reduced cooling: low refrigerant levels due to leaks, a failing compressor, blocked condenser, dirty cabin air filter, or electrical issues. Our diagnostic testing will identify the specific cause and recommend the appropriate solution.

Common causes include refrigerant leaks from worn seals or damaged components, compressor failure due to lack of lubrication, blocked condensers from debris, electrical faults, and contamination from moisture or debris. Regular maintenance helps prevent many of these issues.

Could not be happier with Northside Autohaus. From my fist point of call speaking with Romeo, he was quick to fit me in as my Audi Q5 was leaking adblue liquid and needed urgent attention. When arriving at Autohause, Romeo was there to greet my with kindness and respect. He called as soon as they had found the problem and made recommendations with openness and honesty on costings and timelines.
Fantastic customer service all the way through to the end. I will definitely be visiting Northside Autohaus for all my service and repairs from now on. Highly recommend Autohaus.

Romeo and the team serviced my Audi A8 to my great satisfaction. This was second time I serviced my car here and I am as happy as I was first time. Quality work and friendly service that is hard to find these days. Would like to recommend Northside Autohaus to any Audi, BMW or VW owner.

This week was our second annual service at Northside Autohaus, last year our near 10yr Golf TSI required some semi major servicing with water pump, belts, engine mounts etc (as to be expected with age and kms on the clock), thankfully this year a simple service, wheel balance and tyre rotation to ensure even wear and fuel efficiency, along a quick repair to the rear window washer water line which had broken in the section between the car body and tailgate (another semi common VW fault).

Romeo was helpful as always to discuss any issues or concerns with the vehicle, reach out and call to confirm once the team had inspected the vehicle and what they found, providing an accurate quote and ensuring the vehicle was ready that afternoon (with a clean and vacuum also completed!). Thanks Northside Autohaus for the great service.

My Audi Q7 had a sticky and complicated problem. Jeff and his team were able to locate the root cause and fix it. The team was helpful and friendly. I am happy with the service and highly recommend them.
