So I’ve been reading some previous postings on new dash air-conditioning compressors. I’ve got the document of the new compressors that will work. What is not clear with the document is will these compressors work as a direct drop in with the v-belt pulley?, and is the A6 hose manifold connect to them or is there mods for that? I paid a local mechanic to get my A6 system converted to 134a. He was all about the A6 compressor and convinced me to keep it. Well it never worked very well so now I want to get the A6 pulled and get a new one in. So as I read I want to flush the system, add new oil to the system, (not sure what’s entailed on that), get a new dryer installed and air pressure the system to make sure it hold pressure. Not sure of the sequence of these. Is there other documents I can read that describes the complete conversion process to operation? I’m understanding the damper conversion process pretty well, it’s just the compressor swap I’m not clear on.
Thanks,
