I have found some for other bmw's but not the x. I guess my main question may not even be answered in on. My condenser sprung a leak after a rock was thrown at it while going 50mph. So the r134a vented out and I'm assuming it took some oil.
I bought a new condenser, the o rings mk'd 2 and 4 below and a new drier. I am not worried about replacing the condenser but I'm a little concerned about charging. I'd really prefer to charge this myself because it is such a pain to get in to the dealer, they charge a ton, and I don't trust other shops. I have access to a vacuum pump and manifold to charge it.
I just don't know how much oil needs to be put back into the system. I have no idea how much oil (it is pag100 right?) it is supposed to hold originally. I really don't have much experience with this but I know it isn't rocket science so if anyone can give me some pointers that would be great. Thanks
. . .Or does everyone just fill using whatever r134a and assume the proper type and amount of oil is in there (the r134a that you're putting in that is)?
