Regarding mechanical analysis engineering and running repairs is second to none...Christian, your engineering skills demonstrate such professionalism acuteness is second to none plus, an understanding beautiful happy wife who's always smiling is a winner.

    leaves a footprint of knowledge. However, loosing my dear very much love wife Therese, to Cancer some four years ago has somewhat lessened my approach of self home repairs. Moreover, Therese was very much likened too Vera. A kind loving wife, always happy and quiet mechanical astute.

    @knk3220 27 днів тому

    The Citroen C6 community brought me here, and I've watched some of your videos, in particular to the diesel V6 rebuild series. Your attention to details is impeccable.
    There are a few points I would like to raise here, although I am not an A/C mechanic, but it is worthwhile to share so you can do even better job, or add value to your video
    1) It is worthwhile to compare the number of fins (per inch) and tubes on both original and aftermarket condenser. The aftermarket product tends to cut cost and has worse heat rejection rate than OE/denso/other bigger brands. Although it is less likely to reach the limit of those inferior aftermarket condenser in Germany/Europe.
    2) Not sure if you actually prime the o-ring and groove of A/C line connection with compressor oil or not. If not, applying dielectric grease or nylog(the best) on both item will prolong life longevity and make both less likely to leak.
    3) Since the part's are not easy to access and install, it is worthwhile to invest a little bit and buy a take of dry nitrogen to sweep through the A/C line through the service ports, and vent it out to atmosphere pressure, so you will less likely to introduce moisture to the system.
    4) You can cut open the receiver drier on the old condenser to see if there is any metal flakes inside the system. It is a good way to tell if the compressor is in good shape or not
    Btw, I wonder if LR stated the required vacuum levels when pulling vacuum in the system? In some old General Motors service manual, they specify to pull vacuum until 700 microns, although most of the workshop doesn't have digital manifold to tell such vacuum depth.
    Wish you all the best and keep making great videos as usual!

    I must confess,I didn't watch your last video but I would never post bad comments.
    When you replaced the condenser on Vera's discovery in the video you said it was under vacuum which is unusual, normally it would have a standing charge of nitrogen and a bit of 134a.
    As for the O rings,car manufacturers have a habit of fitting odd ball sizes which you can only get from them.how do I know this,my Skoda fabia had a leak on the liquid line and the O ring in the snap connector was worn.bought a green O ring kit off Amazon and not a single O ring was the correct size.ended up buying the service kit for the connector which was over 100 euros just to get the O ring.
    Keep the videos coming as they are very entertaining.

    I'll state the obvious... There will always be some smart@ss who thinks he/she knows better and will post hate comments. I'm glad you take this all in stride. These people really don't understand the amount of work it takes to do what you do... working a regular job, maintaining a household and property, family obligations, and on top to do all these repairs on camera (takes longer) and then edit the video every week! Mein Gott!! That's a lot. I enjoy your videos for both the LR content but also your good nature and humor. Keep it up! 💛

    Sorry for being late. Had to work on my Land Cruiser this weekend. Yes, you do have to do repairs on Toyota's.
    You will never run out of content because Christian has the mind of an engineer. I watch to learn.
    Even the simple things like using pond liner to protect the drive. Simple and cheap.
    Oh Christian, I know you miss your Channellocks and they probable mean something because they remind you of your time in America but buy yourself a pair of 10" 250mm Knipex Cobra's.
    I can't tell you how good they are.

    I replaced my AC Condenser few years ago. Used same method but it was a tighter fit! Or perhaps my 05 D3 was a bit more seized than Vera’s restored D3. As for last week’s episode- it was great. Ignore the haters.
