The Bentley shows the A/C recharge port behind the passenger headlight but I couldn't find it there. I did find a port by the passenger side strut tower. Is that the correct port?

View 4 RepliesI noticed this on my A3... This weekend I was working on the car and heard air leaking somewhere when the car was on. I pinpoint the leak on the upper left side of the engine where to my guess is a vacuum port. This hose leads to the brake booster. Apparently it's a plastic hose and it had split open near the port. I cut out a section of it and used some coolant hose I had laying around from my MKIV gti. Just thought I let you 3.2's know in case you want to check it out.
What is the function of this? is it to provide vacuum to the brakes? I pulled the hose while the engine was running and it wanted to die just to see if it would cause any issues. Also I may add that before this I've had some engine stuttering at idle where the rpm needle would fluctuate from like 600 rpm to 500 rpm and back up at times and that after replacing that bad section of hose it seems to have corrected that issue as well. I know there have been some stuttering issues around here and have heard that replacing the battery has worked at times.
I have a friend who Just picked up a 2001 GTI 1.8T (auto) and it has a Check Engine Light, but will not communicate with the scan tool. It does have an aftermarket radio, and I did unplug it for giggles, but still no comunication. the K line has 8V on it now.
Is there something IM missing here thats a common problem?
I don't have to VAG-COM to clear any codes do I? I read some one with a Toureg had to clear a low AC fluid/gas warning to get the compressor to come on again.
Some one told me I was all out of AC fluid/gas because when the AC was turned on my car did not lose RPM at idle or power if the car was being driven. Is this man correct?
I was sitting at a red light and when I got ready to turn left my car died and everything locked up. When I looked down I had a message flashing that said recharge battery! I drive a 2006 Hyundai azera. I cant get under the hood because my hood latch broke inside my car. What does the code mean for recharge battery? Was it because it was raining and maybe got wet??
View 1 RepliesI had this happen twice. The Prius will run the ICE non-stop to recharge the battery. Even after the Energy monitor shows the battery to have a full charge (yes, 100% green), the ICE just keeps working to charge it up. Accelerating even slightly, which would normally use the battery only, uses the ICE instead.
View 10 RepliesI need to check for any A/C leaks, and get more recharge to make A/C colder. How can this be done? Can this be done at home? What type of refrigerate do I need. Kings Ranch -102,000 miles.... 2001 F-150 5.4 ....
View 14 RepliesI have a 2010 Corolla S. This was the first time in 4 years that I have had to recharge the A/C. The compressor is not cycling on and off. It is only spinning consistently. Why this is happening?
View 13 RepliesI think the truck needs a recharge, it's not blowing any cold air. The question is - which port do I use? There's one on the top of the accumulator and another in the line just off the passenger side of the radiator, near the coolant tank.
My only recharge experience was after I replaced a leaking accumulator in my 2007 Crown Vic police interceptor, and this obviously doesn't look quite the same.

View 6 RepliesWill be picking up my Camry XLE in a couple days. Told the Dealers not to install the front plate holder and plates.
So, I was wondering has anyone installed a bracket somewhere on/in the front without drilling into the bumper?
I prefer it like that, at least I can put on or take off without having marks or what so ever on the car.

View 2 Replies2008 F-250 Lariat with EATC climate controls... My truck suffers from the knocking/buzzing/clicking that is apparently associated with faulty blend door actuators. I have been putting off getting them replaced because of the hefty price tag associated with tearing apart the dash and whatnot that is required to get to the lower actuator that sits right on the transmission tunnel. Anyhow, today was the first day I really needed A/C and it just wasn't cold. Cool yes, but not cold. Is there a way to determine if this is a function of the blend door(s) not doing their thing versus the system A/C needing a repair/recharge? I don't have access to any A/C equipment myself, how to determine if it's a blend door issue?
View 3 RepliesI have a 1996 Ram with the V10 that only has 10,000 miles since it was replaced by Dodge. 7 years has passed since that shortblock warranty job. It now has a tick/knock that I cant seem to locate? I changed the lifters and one push rod since is was a little bent and put it all back together. Still getting the same thing - nothing has changed ...
View 13 RepliesI'm trying to fix bad AC odor in the car. Instruction says spray into recirculation vent as well as fresh air intake. Fresh air intake was easy but I can't locate recirculation vent. I put recirculate mode on and put the fan to max to feel where air gets moved but was unable to find the vent. Where it is located?

Diagram there indicates there's one on passenger side and driver's side. I took the cabin filter out and inspected the blower motor housing. There really isn't any recirculate duct or vent. There is a big flap on top of the filter and blower motor housing that opens and closes according to the mode. So when the car is in recirculate mode, it just sucks the air behind glove box compartment.
