Air con gas weight?
Hi all
Does anyone know where Audi quote the correct amount of gas and oil for a given vehicle's air-con system? Can't find anything in the handbook and don't recall spotting anything under the bonnet, although may not have looked close enough! Online resources seem to be mainly USA and I'm not convinced the systems are the same, plus they quote in ounces.
Need to get the A6 system done before we go on hols on Saturday and I've heard too many horror stories about bodged refills to at least want to know the basics before I go near a refilling place.
ElsaWin doesn't seem to quote the info, but I may be looking in the wrong place for it! I'm not that familiar with the layout for anything other than looking up basic information. Interestingly it states a very specific process post-refill which I very much doubt any garage will use! Says to rotate the compressor pulley by hand 10 turns, start the car with 'econ' on and allow idle to stabilise, then switch air-con on at lowest setting and leave the car idling for 10 mins.
I recall my old Xsara getting this sort of treatment but never on any other car....
