Hey all, after replacing the leaky heater matrix in my Ro i need to get the air con recharged. Took it to kwik fit and they had no details on their system for the level of refrigerant. They phoned Vx who also couldn't find any info on how much to put in banghead

Can anyone tell me what the correct level is so i can go and get it recharged?

hi,
cant see a car / type mentioned,,,, but I have a late VXR Monaro and MF said to me it's 800 but only 570 in a VXR8. I'm not aware why there is a difference, or if the figures cover all variants of the models, or now I think about it, what the 800 is, but it is correct and they will know as they removed nearly 600 of them from my car before refilling it.
hope this helps....
