#2: Re: Air Conditioning unit location Author: Dillon, Location: KentPosted: Sat Sep 29, 2012 11:38 am ---- That looks like a condenser there should also be a compressor (pump running from the Aux belt) and also a heat exchange unit and a large amount of gubbins inside the cabin behind the dash. What's the problem with it?
#3: Re: Air Conditioning unit location Author: kyral210, Location: LoughboroughPosted: Sat Sep 29, 2012 11:47 am ---- I turn the AC button on and nothing happens even after driving for a while. I heard those refilling kits can solve the problem, but I need to find the nipple where I can fill the gas first...
#4: Re: Air Conditioning unit location Author: Dillon, Location: KentPosted: Sat Sep 29, 2012 11:55 am ---- Don't bother refilling yourself, get it refilled and checked out at a garage, if you don't get the correct amount of PAG oil into it you will kill the compressor. Plus they will pressure test it as well you may have a leak in it. Have you done the basic checks? fuses, checked to see if the compressor come's on (dip in the idle revs when AC is activated)

Hmm... I have to agree TBH 'where is the nipple for refilling' (Hint: you have taken a picture of it...)

unless you got the complete kit already, otherwise you need quite a few bits and pieces to re-gas the system. you can't use bolt the compress R134a can to the system.....
and considering paying only as little as 30 quid could re-gas the system from a garage; i wouldn't bother to buy the kit.
