Correct refrigerant weight for starex

[warrior]

Guru's, Does anybody know the exact refrigerant weight for starex dual a/c. Have asked 4 casa dealerships already and all gave me different answers. The owners manual does not have this information. Badly needed this. Thanks in advance

i don't have the technical info but i worked on mostly all kinds of vans with dual A/C one thing i noticed , they all have this spec.

R134A 3 LBS. +/- 10 %

Thanks, but what i notice here in the philippines, vans have 2 condensers, and they put an average of 1 to 1.2kls or higher.

Hi mr. bambino, thanks again for your response. If you can give me the source of your research for my starex van , would appreciate it because i'm having discussion with my a/c technician and sabi nya sobra daw yon kasi pag nagrerecover daw sila di daw 1.3kls. Thank you again

about the recovery if they ( the techs ) want to prove it themselves that they can't get the same amount of refrigerant they put into the system ;

recover and evacuate the system

charge let's say 1 kilo of refrigerant into the system

and recover . the result will be less
