My air con is decidedly feeble (not cold enuf) despite re-gassing earlier
this year (by Kwik Fit so I hae me doots re the quality of the job). I'm
not a fridge engineer / factory-trained Alfa mechanic (it's rumoured these
exist), so ..... if the compressor (whatever that is) is unwell, how much
are we talking to get it fixed / replaced ?

Excuse my mechanical ignorance, I'm just the driver.
