Car AC gas filling in Dubai, charged by weight after a leak test
Full AC recharge by weight, with vacuum and leak test

AC gas filling is a full recharge of an empty or freshly repaired system. The old gas is recovered, the lines are vacuumed and leak tested, then the exact refrigerant weight for your Audi goes in. A partner AC workshop in Dubai does the work on a charging machine. Message us on WhatsApp or call and we book the slot.
On an Audi specifically
Older Audi models run R134a. Newer ones use R1234yf, which has different service ports and needs its own machine. The two gases must never be mixed. The sticker under the bonnet states the gas type and the fill weight in grams, and the system is charged to that figure, not to a pressure guess.
When you need it
- AC blows warm after a compressor, condenser or hose was replaced
- The system was opened during accident or engine repair
- Cooling faded within weeks of the last gas fill
- AC cuts out because system pressure is too low
What the job covers
-
Recovery and vacuum
Old refrigerant is recovered and the system is held under vacuum to pull out air and moisture.
-
Leak test
The vacuum must hold. If it drops, the leak is traced with UV dye or nitrogen before any gas is added.
-
Charge by weight
The machine fills the exact grams printed on the sticker under your bonnet, with the correct compressor oil.
-
Vent temperature check
Vent temperature and system pressures are measured with the engine running, so you see the result before you leave.

Short answers. Anything else — WhatsApp us.
Which AC gas does my Audi use?
Check the sticker under the bonnet, usually on the slam panel or near the bonnet catch. It shows R134a or R1234yf and the fill weight in grams. Send us a photo if you are not sure and we will confirm.
Why did my AC gas run out?
Refrigerant is not used up like fuel. If the system is empty, it leaked, most often from the condenser, a hose joint or the compressor seal. Filling without finding the leak means the cooling fades again within weeks.
How long does car AC gas filling take?
Plan for about an hour when the system is tight. Most of that time is vacuum and leak testing, which should not be rushed. If a leak is found, the repair comes first and the time depends on the part.
Can you fill AC gas at my home or office?
No. A proper fill needs a recovery and charging machine, so it is done at a partner workshop. Can-and-gauge top-ups in a car park cannot measure weight and often overfill the system.
