Had the A/C checked and they seemed to think there was a problem with the condensor capacity as they could refill less than the usual quoted gas volume. No leaks.
I have checked the threads and want to check the aircon condensor drain pipe. I have an idea where it is from summer driving but if anyone has a pic or diagram I would be grateful.
How many times did they try to fill to the correct fill weight?
If there is alot of moisture in the system then it can happen that you dont get a full charge - if thats the case they should vacuum again and refill until they get the full charge weight.

A lot of places seem to struggle to fill the systems on the S2/RS2s.
I've had mine done at Audiman's place a couple of times with no problems. The vacuuming process does seem to take ages.
Yep, they fill it from the high pressure side on the condenser, i believe there is a refil valve on the low pressure side on the back of the compressor. the bloke who done mine says it is logical to have a low pressure valve, for filling up to the correct amount there, but wasnt sure as he has not worked on these cars before.
