Low pressure Aircon port V50 2.0D
Can anyone tell me the size of the low pressure aircon filling port valve core is on my 2006 V50 2.0D? I believe it’s a Shrader valve. Also, where can I get one? Many thanks.

Its hidden because that's not the one you are supposed to use.. Do you realise since 2010 it is illegal for anyone to tamper with Vehicle AC systems unless they are qualified and hold a certificate to do so ? max fine $40000

The offence in the link only looks to cover irresponsible refilling of leaking system which is quite specific. I can't see any prohibition on DIY repairs followed up by a professional regas. I was interested as I replaced a damaged condenser last year before getting a mobile tech to come and fill the system. Last edited by Wgl2020; Aug 12th, 2022 at 13:15. |
