Aircon and parking censor problems

Hi,
This is my first post so hi everyone Very Happy
Ive had a poke around the forums but cant find the answers to my questions so here goes.

Had my aircon regassed to day at Kwik Fit but it still does not work.
The chap said the machine found no leaks and he can hear the aircon unit work but also said the drivers side vent is blowing a bit cold and the others are blowing warm.
Ive pressed the econ button on and off at tick over but the revs so not change though?

secondly...
neither my front or rear parking censors work.
the P icon blinks orange some times but no sound.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated

Justin

EDIT: my car is a 2008 RRS HSE

Did the garage check to see if the system was working propley when they did the re gas ?
He should have checked the pressures, and recorded the temp drop as per the manufacture instructions.
If at any time it did not meat the requirements he should have stopped and worked out what was wrong.

Does your car have front and rear a/c if so it may be under gassed if the mechanic gassed it as a single unit.

Also check the condenser at the front of the car, if this is blocked it may not be condensing the gas.

All of these problems would have been vissable on the pressure gauges on the machine used to gas the system

I would recommend taking it to some where more knowledgeable in a/c systems instead of a fast fit centre offering a re gas
With no real knowledge on how to diagnose or repair a a/c system

Thanks Rich,
The car has 2 blowers in the center infront of the rear seats but the dials have been kicked off by kids feet I expect.
Is this what you mean by rear a/c?

Hi, no they all have the rear blowers it has to have rear temperature adjustment for it to have twin system.
