Air Con Leak Detection??

[Beaker™]

Had my aircon re gassed today after it failing on me yesterday. But i now realise i have a leak. As if the bonnet is open when the AC is on i can see gas all over the place.

Anyone know how to determine whereabouts its coming from? I know it sounds silly but i can't see where its leaking as when the AC is on the front fans kick in and waft all the gas about

Any ideas?

they should have added an ultraviolet dye when they regassed you then you use an ultraviolet light and the leak glows

Well this was done at a 'local' garage and i think all they did was draw a vacuum then re gas, only £30 all though Still dosnt help with the leak though, i'm just going to have to start pulling bits off the car and checking the pipework.

take it to an aircon specialist.. they will fill it with dye.. and shold be able to pinpoint the leak
