Ac Gas Refilling - Please Help

[tilvin]

Dear Friends,

These days I am finding not cooling enough during 12 pm -2.30 pm with my Wingroad Y11. But morning and evening OK. Almost 8 months back I went for AC gas filling. They just recharged the reduced gas only and washed the condensor I think. But they did not change the AC gas filter and put any compressor oil? For a correct procedure, what have to be done? This time I am going to bring to them. Please advise.

Thanks.....

What you need to do is the standard air conditioning system service. This will normally comprise of the following.

1. Removal of all gas in the system

2. Removal of evaporator and clean. This is important as dust and debris tend to settle and cause corrosion which will ultimately cause leaks

3. Clean the drainage line and any other accessible components.

4. Re assemble the system and pressure test, replace any leaky seals

5. vaccume the entire system, replace gas and compressor lubricant

You really should replace the cabin filter and the AC filter as well at the same time, but I've rarely seen AC filters replaced in SL. The filter which is connected to the gas line will absorb any humidity mixed in wiith the gas.

If necessary you have to replace the expansion valve also

The expansion valve is usually integrated into the evaporator.
