Hi, had my 265 with cup chassis for couple months just before lockdown so minimal driving. Been reading on here couple months now getting clued up on bits and bobs. Just come out of a stage2+ Audi TTS, taken a power cut but the Meg is so much more fun to drive. Few plans for the Meg and hopefully get it out on track a few times. Current mods: Stage 1, grams lowering springs, ktr induction kit One thing I have noticed is the AC isn’t particularly great anyone know what gas is in it and how much?
Welcome. Car looks great. Regassed my aircon twice now and passenger side now started not working great again. Must have a leak somewhere. Not sure if there are common places where a leak is most likely or how difficult they are to fix, e.g. Dash out? Will hav to see cost of an annual regas compared to cost of fixing it once and for all.
Thanks! I’m an ac engineer so wouldn’t be a problem, just can’t find anywhere that says what gas and the quantity
Welcome man! Nice blackmobile have you there! I hope you enjoy it a lot and you show us next upgrades.
The gas is R134a but I’m not sure how much I’m afraid. I’ve got 450g in my head but can’t be sure on that.
Cheers, think first up will be some wheels and coilovers. Even on springs they sit really high. Just waiting for a set of TD’s to come up for sale ok should be able to do it off pressure once it’s running. Will have to see how much I actually get out can’t imagine it’s gonna be a lot
any half decent air con station would drain, refill and pressure test system correctly for you for around £50
I can reclaim the remaining gas, pressure test, vacuum system and charge myself got all the kit. Just after the quantity of gas.
