Dardandec Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 No air conditioning system should be completely devoid of gas unless there is a leak or the system has been evacuated, any A/C specialist worth their salt will know this, and alarm bells should ring straight away. Depletion will occur over time due to dry seals if the A/C hasn't been used for a while and will still occur even if the A/C is being used regularly but will take much much longer, even then full depletion would take forever. Condensers generally are the main cause of leaks because they are smack bang at the front of the car in front off the radiator and deteriorate due to the elements and stone chips etc. This should have been leak checked with nitrogen and picked up from there before the refrigerant gas was reintroduced. Nitrogen makes up about 78% of our air (Googled that bit sorry, been a while since I did my A/C training) so is safe to use for A/C diagnostics, and is my preferred method. Regas and dye the system is an option but has to be evacuated after a leak is detected, not too keen on this method. Quote 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some cars these days need the whole front bumper removed to change a headlight bulb. metaphor poems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
