They should look on Amazon for either Santech, Mastercool, or Robinair. Don't trust the off-brands as the good stuff is not much more.

Re: Noise after AC service

John, ACKits.com does not do international shipping. Freight is crazy as is for the US market.

I set a limit per post. Some like to post a ton of images for their essays.

Re: 2010 honda civic ac not blowing cold

A little information for you. Those wonder cans of refrigerant can't be trusted, IMO. A low-side green gauge is very misleading. It will be very hard for anyone here to give you solid feedback based on that kind of data.

Re: AC service caps for Honda, do they provide seal the AC system?

Yeah, once AMA stopped carrying in locally. The supplier requires it sold by the case.

I suggest this for individual sales.

Re: AC service caps for Honda, do they provide seal the AC system?

Primary seal? I find the comment laughable but understand the point people are trying to make. Think about it, a service port w/o a Schrader and just a cap. LOL You need both for the best chance for no leaks.

Re: Factory AC with Aftermarket Compressor

The best option is to have custom hoses made. Too many adapted connections are just areas for more leaks. No reason an aftermarket compressor will nto work with your components. Be sure you're "not" using a variable displacement Sanden is the only hic-up I see.

Re: High side blew, how much oil lost?

As you know it will be an estimate. A dual unit system, 3 ounces should do it.
