Cost of gassing up aircon (merc)

    I was quoted €180 for gassing up the aircon on an old clk 230.

    Now I have seen ads for lads who'll come out and do it at the house for €80.

    The price was from an independent specialist and he gets someone else in to do it.

    Just wondering if there is much to it and if I am better off going with my regular mechanic?

    Thanks Guys,

    I've no clue on the cost or what to do but it involves draining and then gassing.
