1998 Nissan PAthifnder. Yes its old but 2 kids in college and to more almost there, keeps me in thsi vehicle. Its super reliable up until today. Well it stil runs like a champ, just not the AC. This AM it was fine and blowing ice cold like usual but leter this afternoon it barely got cool. It did get cool, but barely. Well I looked and it looked like it could use a little charge so I did. I noticed then when the compressor engages it makes a rattlng sound. I am guessing its amost dead? Any ideas? Thanks in advance if anone has any input. Oh and FBHO |

srry for the delay. Had to get some guages Engine off 85 Low 155 High Engine on AC on 70 Low 200 High I dont know much but I am thinking the low is too high? Any reccomendations as for what to do next? I can hear and see the compressor kicking in. The guages also change slightly when it kicks in. It was 84 out just after a rainstorm. Fairly humid. Had a buddy recover the refrigerant as he does home AC and had a bottle thingy to put it in. I vacuumed the lines for 30 minutes then let sit for an hour. No leaks so far. |
