Air Conditioning Sittingbourne

Why is my air conditioning so important?

Most people believe their air-con system is solely there to keep them warm or cool while they’re driving. But, your air-con does much more than that.

In fact, it’s critical to the smooth running of your whole vehicle. It’s an essential part of heating and ventilating your car. It dehumidifies the air, which is a major factor in demisting your screen. And, without the right care, it can cause serious consequences.

That’s the reason we recommend you have it serviced every 24 months. Running without a serviced air-con system means you could quickly have an expensive problem on your hands. From blockages to leaks, a damaged air-con unit generally leads to other components in your vehicle having issues.

    Returned to this garage after using main dealer through warranty period. Still very professional and polite. A slick operation keeping you informed of progress with your car. Husband and late father have also used Gent’s for many satisfactory years. Would certainly recommend Gent’s.

    Following a breakdown due to a broken clutch I had my car recovered to Gents Garage. The fault was diagnosed and fixed promptly and professionally. The communication and level of service was fantastic. Richard and Chris kept me updated at all times and explained my options without bias. I would definitely recommend them and will be returning.

    I went in with my car failing its mot while I was working in the area.
    Richard and Chris were fantastic keeping me updated with everything concerning the car, and the work required plus the approximate time it would be finished.
    It had a lot of work done, plus checks done like 4 wheel alignment.
    The car drives like new no creaking or noises, I would highly recommend Gents... Read More

    First time using Gents and I will definitely use them again in the future. Took my 2016 Mercedes c300 in for a full service as it hadn’t been serviced for a while. The technicians thoroughly inspected the vehicle and found a few areas that needed rectifying. They sent a detailed report and even took photos to show me some of the defects. Very honest, thorough and friendly staff. These are... Read More

    I used Gents garage in recent times for what turned out to be suspected oil cooler failure on my 2013 Mercedes E350. Mercedes wanted a small fortune but as I had my car serviced previously and heard many good reviews I opted for the work to be done at Gents. They did it 'by the book', quite literally as per Mercedes guidance and doing the necessary checks on the cylinder linings etc. This work... Read More

    My first visit to Gents garage on the 6th Nov 24 was nothing short of excellence in customer satisfaction. When I arrived it was clear to the reception staff that I was in need of a job done quickly so I could return to work. Being that it was a relatively small job of replacing a fuel filter, they freed up space and cracked on straight away with the task, even though they had higher priority... Read More

    I recently took my motor home into Gents Garage. There was a lot of welding needed underneath at the front. I was kept informed at all stages of the work. The work has been done to a very high standard and at a very reasonable price. I will certainly use them again for my motor home and my car. Lovely helpful people to deal with. Thank you.

    I can't recommend Gent's Garage in Sittingbourne highly enough! Max, the mechanic, is exceptionally knowledgeable and went above and beyond to diagnose an issue that had been causing multiple warning lights on my car. While another mechanic suggested replacing multiple parts at a significant cost, Max quickly identified that the problem was simply due to low voltage affecting the electrical... Read More

    Excellent service. Rang for prices and some advice on buying a 5 series I was going to look at and was given all the info and help I needed to help me make my purchase, even checked the service records for me using the vin No: when I got to look at the car.
    Thank you very much for your time.
    The car will be coming your way in the future when the service is due.

    On holiday from Manchester when the engine management warning light came on our vehicle.
    Chose this garage as nearest to where we were staying and what a lucky find.
    Chris immediately advised us to take the car to him, he undertook a diagnostic check and as he wasn't able to assist in the repair he contacted other garages to help us get back on the road to enjoy the remainder of... Read More

    I highly recommend this garage. I have been using for many many years. Costumer service is amazing, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Work on car is quick and reasonably priced.

  • Alise Ohohonina

    Always had a great service from this garage. Receptionist is very friendly, informative and punctual.
    Never push you to fix certain issues unlike other garages as long as within reason not to be fixed (major issues etc)
    Can be on the pricey side, but well worth it for the service they provide.

Why does my air conditioning loose gas?

All air-con systems naturally lose around 10% of gas every year. That’s expected.

However, if you think you’re losing more than 10%, you could have a big problem. So, don’t wait to see if it gets better on its own. It won’t. And, by the time you get it looked at, your repair bill could easily have tripled.

It’s much safer, and more affordable, to get your air-con checked out at the first sign of a problem.

What’s the difference between a service and a ‘regas’?

Service – Every part of your air conditioning is checked to ensure that it is all working in perfect order. Regas – Replaces refrigerant that’s naturally been lost.
