Hi,
I got a hole in my condenser a few years ago but last week I finally replaced it, brought to a mechanic to recharge and lubricate everything.
It took them 2 hours before the compressor would run so it could take in the gas, they tested for the day and no leaks, but they said the pipes going into the compressor were red hot before, then after they finished finally, it took another hour of the engine running before the compressor would come on but it produced ice cold air. Then they came back and tried again and it went down to a couple of minutes before kicking in. Now it hasn't came on a few days.
I've done some testing in VCDS everything is looking okay, checked the fans in the engine output tests and they both come on, when I turn on the AC the small fan does not rotate but clearly it works.
Above are some measurement blocks, also looks fine to me.
What do you think a G65 pressure switch? Or an N280 solenoid valve that's on the compressor? Where can you see the compressor model, is it under the car and look up or top down?
