My car AC stopped cooling properly about ten days ago and I have been putting off getting it looked at because I was dreading the cost. It started with the air just not being as cold as before and now it is basically blowing room temperature air which is unbearable in this heat. I called a couple of garages in Sharjah and got wildly different answers. One guy said it just needs a gas top up and quoted me a low price, another said the compressor is gone and quoted me a figure that made me choke on my tea. Neither of them actually looked at the car properly, just gave me a number over the phone which feels like a guessing game. A friend at work told me not to trust phone quotes and to find a place that does a proper diagnostic before telling you what is wrong. He mentioned there are some decent options for car AC repair Sharjah wide if you know where to look but I have no idea who is actually reliable. How do I know if it is just low gas or something more serious like a leak or a failing compressor? What should a proper AC check involve and how long should it take? Also is it normal for prices to vary this much or am I being taken for a ride? If anyone has a trusted workshop in Sharjah please share because I cannot keep driving in this oven.
