FFS that's shite. If it can't hold it's gas then it's faulty, doesn't matter if it's used or not. Yes system pressures go up in use, but it's still pressurised when parked so would leak anyway.

Besides, if the aircon was noisey & faulty from new then they failed to pick it up on the PDI & should be liable anyway.

Given that Bubs had a missing hoseclip it sounds like they're not as 'robust' as the impression I had of them.

Might be some useful info on here:

I've joined the Hyundai ioniq forum which is more specific I think. I'm certainly watching mine closely for any odd knocks,bangs etc

A nearby village regularly gets driveby shootings with a catapult at the windows - they did every BMW in the area one night. It's a traditional way of life so it is completely ok of course.

what's the range of these devices? Would they launch a spark plug through the plate glass palace selling Hyundais from 300 yards?

I once put a stone through a phone box (it did both sides) from about 1/4 mile away with a damn lucky ballistic shot using a black widow catapult...
