Hi
I am going to recharge my air con this week, before i do i need someone to confirm where the correct place is to recharge. Is the service port the port nearest the front of the car furthest from the condensor?

Many thanks

Not sure if the one you quote is the correct one, but your post suggests YOU are going to do the job yourself. If so, surely you should know? Alternatively if a 'specialist' is doing the job then surely they should!

The suction/return line is larger than the High pressure side. You need to charge the system via the low side (Suction/Return) just follow the larger line from the compressor and your run in to the filling valve...
