How do i know when it needs regassing? Should it throw out freezing air straight away? How much for a recharge?
Never had aircon before you see

If it isn't ice cold after you have had the AC on for a couple of minutes then it need re-gassing or something else is fucked.

It's a 9 year old car so guessing it wont be charged up 
Any ideas on the cost of regassing?

£40-80 depending on where you go and what you have done.. for £40-50 most places will just throw some gas in for you, but ideally you want a vac leak test, some service oil and dye.

The dye is put in to detect leaks, basically get it gassed,with service oil and dye then if it goes flat again you can go back to the same place and they will be able to identify the leak by the dye.
