Air conditioning gas refill

Model: Hyundai Sonata - Years 2004-2014
Part: Air conditioning

If, when activating the air conditioning, the air coming out of the ventilation openings is not fresh enough, it is possible that there is not enough gas in the system to allow the compressor to carry out the refrigeration cycle correctly. Given that the air conditioning is a closed circuit and therefore if there is no gas it is likely that there may be a leak in the system and should be checked by performing the vacuum with the appropriate equipment; however there are gas cylinders on the market that allow you to do the refill yourself: start the engine and turn on the air conditioning, connect the cylinder to the relative valve and let the gas penetrate. Then check that the air coming out of the vents becomes cold.
