I think this is a question that is on the minds of a lot of new vehicle owners, especially owners that are used to servicing their own vehicles. Can you service R1234yf AC systems as a DIYer?

In this video I offer my take on this question and also offer helpful advice on servicing AC systems in general.

    My 1989 truck with original R12 AC has been running for two years now on R152A (air duster). Cold as ice and $2.00 a can.

    The major knock to DIY repair were the full warranties sold on new vehicles, limiting experience by general professionals until a vehicle is 5 years old. The DIY crowd have been able to keep up with technical innovations through the years, but the new phase shift to electric vehicles will be a challenge.

    Ive read that AC-systems looses 8-10% refrigerant per year. If thats the case i would have lossed like 60-70% maybe thats why my compressor doesnt start anymore?

    It's 1993 all over again. All of these problems faced shops and DIYers when we changed over from R-12 to R-134a. It'll be a few years of difficulty and growing pains for HFO-1234yf, but the market will catch up. It did last time.
