    Re: Air Con Compressor

    should be fairly easy, except for the evaporator under the dash. - you could use the clio mk2 style remote evap in the scuttle tray i reckon

    Re: Air Con Compressor

    I wouldn't say it would be easy... I've done a few installations on 106's & 206's etc.

    Like you say taking the dash out would be a pigs ear to do. Then cutting the bulkhead for a pipe run- not my idea of fun lol.

    I maintain/service/repair:install refrigerated vehicles sparkie- same sort of field I guess.

    Got him that compressor at a great price in the end. I can supply all types of vehicle compressors- I'm cheaper (and better) than hella too!! PM me if you want any quotes buddy.

    Re: Air Con Compressor

    ahh, so you actually do what i did wanna do at one point. i used to travel the UK selling, servicing and repairing aircon machines. i now do mostly tools and stuff to be honest, as our aircon program isnt cheap enough to compete. (as in auto ac machines ).

    Re: Air Con Compressor

    a degree in materials science, an admin job in the automotive industry for the last 12 years and an FGas license doesnt make me an ideal candidate.

    Ha. You got more than most people that do my job mate. I got C&G 2078/2079 and training certificates etc but that's about it.

    Fgas is a joke ain't it! ****ing expensive as well!

    Re: Air Con Compressor

    is the compressor prelubricated?
    remember to dip the new seals in PAG/PAO oil before you fit em

    TC says it has transport oil and has advised what to do .TBH I'm just going to bolt the fecker on and will call out the local mobile fella to advise/lube and pop the lines on before re-commission
    Unless you want to pop over to chew the fat about dodgy T2's and life in general whilst you do it
