Dam peopel that retrofitted my A/C I don't think did it right, it blows NOT COLD when it is sizzling out, do you think I should take it back to them, it has been a year since they did it, but it never really blew COLD... I am so pissed, today was so hot out. When you retrofit R12 to R134a is it suppose to be that crappy? During the night it blows cold, but not freezing.

 

i just had my system retrofitted. It surely is not as cold as the R12. But If you put it to 68degrees with fan at 2nd setting(2 little bars) its bone chilling cold..

 

Take it back and B!tch!

 

how much did it cost you to get r134a retrofitted?...i just want an idea so that when i take it into the shop this week sometime they arent trying to rip me off

 

I just had the retro fit two weeks ago and it does not blow as ice cold as it used to with R12 but as stated earlier, instead of keeping it at 72(which used to freeze the car) I moved it down to 68 and am basically getting the same effect.

The conversion was $250 with all parts and charging.

 

is this a hard thing to do or should I take it to the shop....my a/c is out

 

try checking the r134a gas level.

 

gas levels can drop in a year, you may just need to top it off.

 

its funny but i have my just charge up with 134a without retrofitted or anything replace, the guy who check the charge said it was completely out of r12, so just charge it up with 134a its been working 2 years now no problem and it blows really cold air, it know it might mess up my compressor but its working fine

 

I just got the 134a retro fit done... total cost $91 thanks guys...

 

what do you mean retrofit the A/C

my air compressor just went out and i want to know what is the best replacement to put in and how much it costs

 

nothing beats r12 just had mine done thats right we drift with a/c luxury babies icy cold at 76mph sideways

 

you know I thought that at first... but after driving for an hour that 134a and it can freeze your head off..

 

more info on this?

was it a local shop in your area or you bought parts and did them yourself?

what did they/you change out?

 

well i had my car checked by my uncle (master mechanic at nissan).. n well we found out my compressor is leaking and one of the pipes is leaking.

how much do you think that would cost to replace?
