2001 Infiniti G20 A/C problem
Asked by Funnygreenie Sep 08, 2015 at 12:22 PM about the 2001 INFINITI G20 FWD
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
Trying to diagnose my 2001 Infiniti G20 A/C issue, heres the details:
-A/C Blows warm air
-2yrs ago had system flushed, checked for leaks (got a report of no leaks),
and refilled---super ice cold air for about 1 week and back to warm air
-Refilled with a can bought from Walmart, Cold air for another week, then
back to warm air.
-Checked pressure in low side, near zero
-To test if the compressor was good, I added just enough R134 to the
system, and it did kick on, no squealing or lock ups

You have a leak in the system and you will continue to leak refrigerant. You will need to find the leak, make the repair and recharge the system..

Thanks, that is what I figured, though weird it passed the leak test at local maint. shop. Hmm, guess I will leak test myself.

If it is taking a week to leak out you can add some 134a freon stop leak from auto zone. Put some in my friends vehicle and it had a leak that would only last about a week when charged put in stop leak at beginning of summer talked to him a few days ago and he said it is still cold.
Check the o-ring while car running fill with coolant, have a spray bottle of water ready and spray amongst the hosing and compressor area, if within the hosing that connects to the compressor, most signs of leakage comes from the o-rings.
