Yes, it might be $2400. You have a German car not a beater.

You don't want to get wrapped around the axle on a claim for less than $10,000. It will cost you $30,000 in pain.

Spend the money. And if they screw up, spend more money, At some point, you will hit the magic number where the manager will escalate and call in the Calgary and get it fixed correctly.


This crap will eat you alive. You won't enjoy your car and you'll end up being a miserable jerk.

Call their bluff and tell them to fix it. At some point they will fix it and you will still be happier than if you pursued a claim against the dealer.

Smile. Now forget about the past, send an email to your dealer directing them to fix the AC.
its a 10yo base model car. whether its german or not, dropping a bunch of cash into it isnt always the smart idea.

2400 to fix is a good percentage of what its actually worth.
So, it's far better to stop diagnosing in the middle of a repair? Instead of having a working AC, the OP wasted half the money and is twice as miserable.

Just fix the damn thing and drive on.

What other choice does the op have?
