AC oils and Refrigerant
 
Hi folks,
last Summer / Winter I had a few issues with my AC, somehow it was almost empty, although there were no leaks to be detected.
Haven't used the AC since the evac and refill, end of last summer, despite 3 or 4 times.

I was looking over the print outs of the AC machines, and I realize the last dude refilled 15ml of oil.
I think he may have forgotten that I got to him, with an already previously completely emptied AC.
I want to the AC to be evac'ed again, change the evap valve and drier, while filling the AC again with enough oil and refrigerant.

First of, how bad would a overfill on oil be? second any hints on were to keep and eye on, as there has to be somewhere were the since 1999 never touched AC system lost its "cool :scpimp: "

Am I right that I'd need
Accumulator 105 ml
Compressor 60 ml
Condenser 30 ml
Evaporator 90 ml
-------------------
285ml of ... what ever kind of ... AC oil?

and 0.73 kg Refrigerant Capacity

for my '99 V6 4doors GLS ?

Overfill on oil will reduce overall cooling capacity since you will be putting less R134 in it. PAG150. I use and recommend this oil:


And yes my compressor is a belly leaker and when I recharge I add some of this oil to compensate. Yes I do like the ICE 32 part as well.
