Hi all -

I have a 2009 e70 4.8. The air conditioning is blowing warm. I just dropped it off at the dealer (still under extended warranty) and they said that if they have to recharge it I will be charged $150. The car is only 4 or 5 years old so I expressed my concern that, if it needs to be recharged, there has to be a leak somewhere. They said this is normal for an x5 and that even charging after a couple of years happens.

AC should be a closed loop system so recharging it means there's a leak, right? And should a car of this age be leaking? Is there anything I can say, or anyone I can call, if they say they can't find a leak but have to recharge?

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Chris
