Freon weight help


Could someone help me confirm which amount of Freon is supposed to be in the air conditioning system, please.

I’m a bit confused with this label. Is this referring to 2 and 4 zone climate?

If so, how do I know what I have (I have rear fan assist on the front console and 2 dials/knobs on the back of the centre console). I think I have two zone, but just want to confirm.

Any help appreciated

Cheers

Yep - only one air-con system, so 750g of R134a required. Regards,

Air con

Hi, you only have one air con unit but extra pipework hence more gas weight, I think they produce one sticker that will fit all cars?

Interesting, my 2007 has climate seats front and rear, does that make a difference?

Climate seats make no difference as they don't have AC circuits in them, just some clever peltier cells.

As I understand it, with 4 zone AC there is additional pipework and a separate evaporator unit for the rear cabin, hence the larger refrigerant volume.

You can tell if you have 4 zone by seeing what the controls are on the rear of the centre console. If you have 3 dials and the 2 outer ones have temperatures then you have 4 zone AC.

@ cheezels - as you say you have 2 dials then you must have 2 zone AC.

There's a picture of the different configurations in the owners manual (2010-2012 version) 2017 4.4 SDV8 Autobiography

Thanks Rob, ‘twas what I was thinking.

What got me questioning myself was the amount of Freon recovered equaled the amount for a 4 zine vehicle.

Looks like it’s been overcharged at some point 2007 3.6 TDV8

There is an easy reference point... If your car has a 1” deep arm rest cubby box then it has 2 X aircon fitted Thumbs Up

All the gubbins gets hidden under there and you loose your cubby box Rolling Eyes
