GT86 Valve Spring Recall

[Rotary Potato]

Morning all.

Hopefully a really easy question for someone who's had this done on their GT86 - do they need to drain & refill the aircon refrigerant in order to complete the recall?

My aircon is ridiculously weedy at the moment (perils of buying a car in February - it felt nice and cold then! ) and the recall is still outstanding. I see no point in paying to top it up if it'll just be emptied again when I have the recall work completed.

Just spoke to one of our techs (Toyota dealer)

In short, Yes they do drain and refill the A/C system

Thank you very much for that. Much appreciated.
