Frequently asked questions

An air con recharge refers to the process where the refrigerant is added to the car’s cooling system so that it can continue to blow cold air effectively.

When recharging a car’s air conditioning system, you need to be prepared with a compatible refrigerant gas. The refrigerant then needs to be measured using a digital gauge to check the diagnostics, this will let you know if there’s anything you need to be aware of such as leaks, and whether the pressure is low, good or over the recommended level. If the pressure is low, the system will be recharged.

If you’ve noticed that your air con isn’t working as it should, it’s a sign telling you that you need an air conditioning recharge. But don’t worry, we have you covered, we offer air conditioning services and can take care of everything and give it a good, thorough clean too.

Phil Bridgeman - March 02, 2026

"Had a excellent experience at VRS at the weekend. Booked my car in as I was having issues with coilovers and adjustable drop links I had installed myself. Was greeted by Connor (hope that's spelt correctly) who was friendly and was with me as soon as he'd opened up shop and moved some cars around to make room for mine. Brief reminder of why I was there and he had my car straight in. He asked me to come look underneath the car with him and whilst I was there the problem was diagnosed. The coilovers on one side needed dropping into the hub 5mm more. And one of the drop link bolts on one side was loose. I also knew the near side front needed a slight adjustment so all 4 corners matched. I was amazed at how quickly Connor had all of this done for me whilst I waited in their comfortable waiting area. Once I payed we had a nice chat about some of the cars in for repairs and a chat about Connors own cars which is refreshing as a lot of garages just want you in and out once you have paid. I'm now back to enjoying my car again without worrying something is ready to fall off. I would highly recommend VRS. Thanks again Connor 👍🏻"

"Took my Audi A5 to VRS Performance for a heating issue and couldn’t be happier with the service. They diagnosed and fixed the problem within a day. The mechanics I spoke to were super friendly, polite and professional also when I showed interest in some of the cars, they even offered me a tour of the workshop, I’ll definitely be going back and would highly recommend them to anyone!"

"Put my A45 in to have a down pipe fitted and a stage 2 tune. VRS use the EST software which is considered by many in the AMG community to be the best for this platform, so I knew the car would be safe. The team at VRS have long established reputations for customer service, quality and knowledge, and that reputation is well deserved. All in all a great experience and a big thanks to Conor for his communication and lift to the train station."

"The aux belt on my Audi came off and left me stranded, but VRS were brilliant from start to finish. I gave them a ring and Joe and Connor were excellent. They got me booked in quickly and had everything sorted. The quality of their work, the customer service, and the great communication from the whole team at VRS give you real confidence when they’re working on your pride and joy. Hands down the best garage I’ve ever used, whether it’s for general servicing and repairs or for modifications and tuning. 10/10."

"Booked our Tiguan in for a Gearbox service, Joe booked it in really quickly, no messing about at all. Gearbox/DSG service completed without issue, car drives great. Gave it a full check over for piece of mind too which was great! Can't fault anything, will 100% use again!"

"I’m really picky with who I’ll let work on my beloved Mk5 Golf GT, I’ll always try and do it myself. When the dual mass flywheel failed on my car, causing all sorts of vibrations, I was a bit stuck. The thought of getting the gearbox out on my driveway wasn’t sounding great, and I wasn’t going to take it to some generic clutch and exhaust workshop. A good friend of mine was having some work done on his Porsche 928 Strosek, I went down to have a look around to be greeted with a beautifully clean workshop with some insane metal in there, UR Quattro rally cars, track prepped Golf GTi’s, tuned Golf R’s, a Porsche 356 Speedster, what looked like a 2.7 Carrera RS behind that the list goes on. So how did they do? I had clutch, flywheel, release bearing and rear main seal fitted. My GT has never driven so nicely in the 8yrs I’ve owned it! I must confess to genuine tears of joy on my way home down some of Leicestershire finest country lanes. The guys knocked it out of the park, I cannot recommend the guys at VRS Leicester enough. Thanks gents!"
