Default Looking for GTA Air Conditioning Specialist

I have had my C5 for 4 summers and have had air conditioning issues since I got the car. All of the under hood components are new. So I am wondering if anyone can recommend a Toronto area location that is an Air Conditioning specialist that can get to the bottom of my issue.

Thanks!

It is a long story, After parts were replaced car blew cold air but only for an hour. Then it shut down. Best feedback I got as to cause was that the cold air line was too close to the right side header, I added insulation to the line which improved the situation but not totally. Plan was to insulate the headers next. This past week it decided to blow hot air at all times.

Control head seems fine. I don't believe a pressure switch was changed.

I am looking for someone who really knows their stuff so that I stop spending good money (and time) after bad.

The fact that it ran for an hour suggests that all your components are fine. i would bet you have a leak and are not holding vacuum. Any competent AC guy should be able to diagnose this easily. Have you tried Champion Motors or even the stealership?
