2013, V8, LR4, 92K miles. She has been in storage in my garage since 2020, run and moved a bit over the years, everything is fine. except very, very little to no A/C. In hindsight, I did not run the A/C during that time. The local independent took out 640g (or thereabouts) and recharged with... -

Dash Cam - Best Options?
