Everyone agrees that refrigerant oil is key to a healthy system; as well as lubricating the compressors internal components it’s also a heat absorber and sealing agent for rubber parts such as hoses and seals. PAG 46 oil is the correct specification lubricant for both reciprocating and rotary compressors, although there are even differences with this designation, as the formulation will vary slightly depending on whether the system uses R134a or the newer, more environmentally friendly, R1234yf refrigerant.

Our experts can check that your air con is working properly, and help you resolve any issues quickly.

This could expose the compressor to excessive friction and other components such as the seals and expansion valve to fail.

Using the wrong oil in hybrid vehicles may allow current to short circuit back through the A/C compressor, creating a shock hazard.
