Default A/C pressure

Hello every one, I tried to check the pressure of the A/C on my x and I couldn't because the low pressure port was to big for the pressure gauge and I have always have used this on other cars does any one know were I can get the correct one to check the pressure and charge it again, thanks guys

You are at the high preasure port. Sorry I don't know where the lo5w side is on an X, maybe do a search.

The high and low pressure ports are side by side. Look again. There is a second port right there. it is a little bit smaller as I recall and that is the one you need to use.

The LP port is hidden under an electrical harness that runs around the top of the wheel tower. A standard gauge fits on my LP port but I don't know what you're using.
