Re: BMW 325i won't take a full charge

They did have one available. I need to create the item on the website if you are interested. Yes! Please do! And I'll sort out arrangements for compressor rebuild with you. Thanks! Ackits.com is down right now. A developer is on it. For some odd reason, Chrome and Edge are not loading. Firefox work...

That is the body style. It should have a number like 7312, 4884, and so on. Many compressors use the same body but have different pully assemblies or head configurations. The 4-digit number identifies this characteristics.

Re: 2011 Fusion low side low, high side high, short cycle

During my time at the dealership, we never patched anything and never shortcut any repairs. To suggest otherwise is defamatory as you have no evidence. Just like politics, everyone has an opinion. I would never recommend a rebuilt compressor on every job. I would call that a shortcut. A rebuild sho...

Re: Give insight to my gauges...

How much history do you have on the vehicle? 220k miles is way past the average lifetime of a scroll compresor... Doing some research, I was wrong when asked today if it were a scroll. My question would be, do we know if this system has the proper refrigerant level? Not by pressure or adding a litt...

Re: BMW 325i won't take a full charge

All is good and not really about you or any single post. It's been happening for so many years, not only here but also on phone calls. One try's to balance being informative and just being used because you are the one that responds or picks up the phone. This year I'm just taking a stand and deletin...

Re: BMW 325i won't take a full charge

Damn, now I know why I stayed with freon in my '78 928 when I rebuilt that system 14 years ago. (Did I buy the barrier hose and fittings from ACKits?) Not sure. I do not research people's posts. If you did, thank you. Either way, feel free to post an image. Just leave out other advertisements. Thx....
