Fellow Enthusiasts,
I own and cherish a 85 735i 5 speed. Sure it has a few issues, but none that warrant abandonment for something newer. Here is my problem...

As most of you know, doing any kind of a/c work by yourself is impossible, and thanks to the environmentalists, illegal. I recently had my entire a/c system overhauled. New Compressor, New condenser, new rec/dryer etc. Well, it turns out the system now blows only a few degrees colder - for the money I spent, I want ice! Anyone know what the shop could have done wrong - or forgot to check?

Also, the shop did a really shoddy job. The cowl over the vent blower motor is not properly installed and missing 7 screws! My dash, right in my field of view, has a deep ding in it. They broke the glass on my VDO, and now my odometer and trip meter wont work. Does anyone know why the odometer and trip would stop? - The speed still works but is not as smooth as it was prior to the operation.

What recourse do I have with these guys?

Thanks for the input.

Ted
