- djbusby 4y agoIt's also in the manual. Searching for Make+Model+Manual has usually found it for me, then use the index in the manual to find the right page.
- hattmall 4y agoYeah, this drove me nuts looking for it, but then I remembered car was in a wreck and I think hood was replaced, no sticker. Manual only says contact qualified service technician. I'm pretty sure it's R1234yf, but still would think it should be something to easily find online.
- RedShift1 4y agoSorry for mansplaining if you already know this. If the car was in an accident and the aircon doesn't work anymore, it means the gas loop is leaking. You can try to refill it but depending on the size of the leak it's going to work for a few hours to maybe a couple of days. You should evacuate the loop and do a vacuum test. If it is leaking, refilling the system with some added dye can show you where it is leaking. The Schrader valves are the usual suspects but as the car has been in an accident it could be anywhere. Adding refrigerant to a leaking system is just blowing away money that could be used to actually fix the aircon properly.
- westmeal 4y agoMansplaining? Really?
- traverseda 4y agoMaybe it's short for manual.
- aquaduck 4y agoWell, the GP was specifically complaining about how he's tired of all the bot-splaining.
