Car Ac wont work in very hot Climate ( Karachi )

[chinyoti]

Cant say not sure about it.

If liquid was only 50 psi im expecting the low side would be 15 or 20 or less, meaning severely undercharged, it would be having almost no cooling, it would be humid air like air blowing over some cubes of ice.

The flutter you see is the expansion valve trying to control the refrigerant flow, instead of smoothly working and gently cotrolling the liquid refrigerant its going to full open and then closing suddenly which causes a sudden rise in pressure which is shown as flutter.

Find a tech who is not stuck in dumbass land and actually wants to work by using his brains.

Honeywell... Hmm more like a shashka. Those chinese refrigerants are equally good and cheaper too. Believe me most AC technicians are doing fraud. They just carry Honeywell cylinder that was refilled with some Chinese gas. They would charge you double by telling you its US gas but actually its a Chinese refrigerant that they are selling you.

few days back, i check and that 2002-2008 corolla compressor was costing 27k in Lahore...
Toyota Duet compressor is of exactly same spec, and costs around 11k

[syedfaizan1]

Honda life Compressor Cost 5 to 6 K
Terious Kid Comrpessior Cost 9 to 10 K
Toyota Compressors are Costly I mean the Denso ones i guess which comes JENYAN in corollas
Honeywell Original USA r134A Cylinder cost 19500 1 Number.

Chinese Gasses are Cheap and usually Shopkeppers install Chinese one !

recently i went thru the same process, and opted for duet compressor after checking that it had exactly same specs as original one, working fine..

[syedfaizan1]

Before i was using Terious Compressor, they are working great in my Charade and other Corolla , just mistkanely instlaled in this another car for Honda life, its good but in very hot Climate it was not working very good so using it till it dies and will install the Terious one back again in this car.

this condenser was installed recently with gas charge up

What if it doesn't die? Would you just keep suffering. Throw it away and buy a better compressor. I hope if you could afford to keep 2 or 3 cars then buying a compressor that costs few thousand extra won't hurt you.

Bro 1 month back i installed the Complete System and then after that i put this new Condenser, i cost me alot to maintain this car , Right now its working fine, i will do it in coming months. 2 to 3 cars takes alot of maintenance as you know. i will do it Soon IA will put terious Compressor again

[aziz.rehan]

And Bro i dont drive all cars that much, i Drove this 2015 Corolla only 2700 Kms in 6 months since lockdown, i bought another car 2 months back drove only 500 km in 2 months, Charade is parked all 30 days a month so my running is not that much

[aziz.rehan]

Do all Corolla's like 1.3,1.6.1.8 and 2.0 use same compressor or specific one?

[xenerking]

this is from 2014 rolla, there are different comp, i.e. single sensor/ double sensor for different versions and years,

but, sarey maslon ka aik hi hal
nawab tubewell nawab tubewell...

this duet comp. goes in all versions.

[aziz.rehan]

What's price for duet one

[xenerking]

11k

[chinyoti]

Since the compressor in discussions is from scrap yard. The corolla 2nz old compressors dont cost more then 8 to 12k.

The ones that come in from the 10th gen so called sensor wala compressor they cost a fortune. But they don't put load on the engine

But yes they are prone to this problem. The compressor starts tripping at random and then dies eventually.

[Xulfiqar]

So basically you are claiming that all manufacturers are basically morons and should just install the “duet” compressor in all cars.

Shaabaash,

Dada ki vegzall ki kya baat thi!!! Na ac thaa na ac ki maintenance
