Air con Diagram/Info.

Postby Tracey74 » Mon Feb 05, 2018 7:18 pm

Hi Guys, I need a diagram/plan of air con system for my van??
I am totally in shock that I have just had somebody look at my van and the COWBOY, has chopped my air con pipes off on the drivers wing??
I need to know if there was a Receiver-dryer or accumulator under my air box??

This pipe comes up from the radiator area up towards the air filter box??
I need to know what it went into???
BECAUSE I ALSO HAVE 2 shiney silver pipes that are housed just under window screen, it’s too dark to take anymore photos.

Air con pipes are very expensive, I price up some for my 2011, the Were over £300!

I believe the receiver is mounted behind the bumper corner on that side and the pipes run up the inner wing to the heater box

So I have found 2 pipes at the top sawn off and blacked over and 1 pipe at the bottom sawn off, Accumulator/dryer is totally missing.
Been back to the garage.
Had a Huge argument with the Owner, and I made him bring out the mechanic who BUTCHERED MY AIR CON.
After 30mins of B***s***......
He agreed they are at fault.

They now have the van and Amazingly have found my Pipes and the Accumulator!

I have been promised they will put it all back together????
But how?
They are telling me that they can re join the pipes???
I am not confident...
But will give them a chance.

It begs the question of why they felt the need to remove the pipes in the first place, and secondly, do you trust such a garage to make it all good, as I have no idea how they will repair those pipes without replacing them with new ones :(

I have my fingers crossed for you :)

Well, I have made my view very clear, I will not except another bodge job!
I shall be looking at what They alphabet put back?!!!
And have told them, as soon as I get van back it’s going straight to a AC Specialist, which it is for a second opinion!

Their excuse was, We had to take all that away to WElD!
I said you have BUTCHERED MY VAN without even asking!!! :oops:
