Hi Guys,
Noticed last week that my air con was not cooling at all on my 2012 991.1 2S
When I checked the refrigerant gas, the system was empty. I added some gas and at first no obvious leak, but then I spotted two small dark spots on one of my condensers.
I just collected it from the garage after a major service and they noted the same problem, but said they did not spot any obvious leaks and further investigation would be required.
After a week, a considerable amount of the gas had remained in the system. I replaced the condenser yesterday and re-charged with gas again, but no change in temp. There is now a noticeable hissing type noise coming from behind the central air vents when I switch on the air con. The system is still holding its charge when I checked it this morning :?
Anyone experienced similar or got some advice on troubleshooting? I was thinking of changing the dessicator next?
