How much to charge AC system
#6
so with the recharge kit from the autoparts store did it work to make the system cooler? My AC blows cold for a minute or two, then warmer air for a few minutes, then back to cold.
Dont know if this is just a low refrigerant symptom, or a problem with something else...
On the top stickies however, it says how the 4th gen uses a variable compressor, where the low side pressure port ( where you hook up the DIY refrigerant kits ) wont show a noticable change in pressure if the system is under or overcharged...
so anyway, what was your experience with the DIY kits? Did it actually work? And where is the low side port in the 4th gen? Thanks

The low side port is near by the passenger side strut tower. It has a plastic cap with the letter L on it. The high side and low side ports are different sizes. The charging kit connector is sized for the low pressure port. You can't use the wrong one accidentally.
