Default A/C Shop in the GTA

The A/C in my DD is acting up (blowing cold but not very cold) and I was wondering if anyone has a shop in the GTA that they would recommend? Cheers.

Dealer shouldn't charge too much for a recharge. Ask them to use dye in case it's a leak

Thanks gents. I may start with a 'top up' at my local indy guy and go from there - seemed to be working quite well on my 4 hour drive to Ottawa this morning and it's fairly warm out. Cheers.

This thread inspired me to get my A/C checked out. Turns out the A/C hardline o-rings needed replacement and oil leaked out. Freon was very low. I'd been suffering in the summer heat for a while, and now that problem is solved!

Out of curiosity who did the work for you?

I let Dirk and the team at Mantis Autosport take care of it for me. I had some other things that needed service, so it was sort of a "while the car is there..." sort of deal.
