My car has the dealership installed VPC AC. I purchased the car 5 months ago and the AC doesn’t blow cold. I have no history on it. Still had a little pressure in the system. I’m thinking of charging it with R134. Has anyone done this and know how if it will work and how much I should try to put in the system?

If you are just trying to get the system working again without replacing the compressor you may be able to use an R-12 replacement freon. I think there are a few of them available. You may have to evacuate all of the R-12 out of the system first and I would replace the dryer as well. One of the available replacements is "Freeze 12"
