Fast A/C diagnostics for Kathirvedu vehicles
Kathirvedu connects directly to Surapet via Puzhal–Surapet Road across Chennai Bypass. Car owners near Kathirvedu Junction, Lake View Colony, and Chennai Bypass service road can reach our Surapet workshop in under 8 minutes. We address common local driving issues: stop-and-go heat buildup, clogged cabin filters from neighborhood dust, and refrigerant pressure loss.
Local Driving Note: Vehicles operating near the bypass accumulate fine highway particulate and industrial dust, which coats the condenser fins and causes high compressor discharge pressures. Our inspection includes condenser fin cleaning and pressure diagnostics.

- A/C Not Cooling Fix: Gauge manifold pressure test and digital vent temperature measurement.
- A/C Gas Filling: Complete nitrogen leak check, deep evacuation vacuum, and calibrated R134a/R1234yf charge. Starting from ₹1,199.

Four steps, in this order, every time
Diagnosis-first is the whole method: measure, write it down, then price it. It is also why every job, gas filling included, is quoted in writing after the checkup.
We test before we quote
The free 30-point A/C and electrical checkup runs first, 15 to 35 minutes, with a written report of what was measured.
You get the estimate in writing
The report says what was found. Gas filling, like everything else, is quoted in writing after the checkup, and nothing starts until you approve it.
No work starts until you approve
Nothing is opened up or replaced before you say yes to the estimate. If the diagnosis changes the scope, you hear about it first.
Repaired, then checked again
The approved work is done and the car is checked again before handover.

A big repair does not have to wait for next month. After the free 30-point checkup and your written estimate, you can pay through Bajaj Finserv EMI and split the bill into monthly instalments. It covers car A/C service, A/C repair, selected car services and eligible parts.
