Hi guys,
Can anybody offer any pointers to help me refurbish and repair my air conditioning?
It has a leak and hasn't worked for 2 years, so could be full of all kinds of crap. It takes around 12 hours to leak out all the coolant (not sure where) after a full fill.
1) I plan to replace the compressor with a second hand item - is this easy to remove, and how??
2) Where's the receiver/drier and is it easy to replace?
3) Are there any seals that are prone to leaks I should check first?
When I've renewed the components I was considering taking it along to Kwik-fit to have it vacuumed out and refilled, seems like a cheap way of getting this done.
Anybody got photos that might help? I know the most popular route is to just remove it but that's not the direction I'm going.
Cheers!
