Hi all,
I got my dad to whack my VR-4 onto the air con machine at his work a few weeks back, and we scrolled through the menu on it, and found a 1998 Galant 2.5 V6, all good we thought, and proceeded to put in some refrigerant.
It worked fine for a few days, but packed up after that.
Someone else on another forum has recently had their A/C regassed on another car (Merc S-Class), which comes with either just front A/C, or with rear A/C too. The place he took it to put in enough refrigerant for the system with rear A/C, when he's only got front.
Same symptoms as mine - worked fine for a couple of days, then stopped.
Had the A/C re-done with the correct amount, and it's been fine since.
Therefore, I'm wondering whether 1) my A/C is just knackered!, or 2) the N/A V6 A/C system is slightly different to the VR-4's A/C system, and requires different amounts of refrigerant, causing the same issue.
Does anyone know exactly how much refrigerant should be in the A/C system of a VR-4?
Cheers!
