I learned a lot watching this. Almost enough to try it myself. 😬
That’s what we are here for! We are just a couple of guys who enjoy fixing our own stuff. If we can do it you can do it! All the luck to you
Great video, just one thing I didn't see, which may not seem to be a major thing. But, you didn't explain the removal or replacement of the serpentine belt, believe it or not, most people don't know how to remove the Belt or replace it!!
Apart from that, nice explanation and showing of everything else!!! 👌😀
Thanks!
I do have a separate video for the serpentine belt
Hell yeah man!!!! Very helpful video from start to end!!!! Keepm coming!!!!
We appreciate the feedback!
Thank you for the in-depth video on replacing it. I got my new one in the mail for 130, certainly a lot better than auto stores wanting to charge 300+ for one
Great to hear!
Is it still lasting or did you return and buy the auto parts brand
@hunterwarren8618 it's still going strong. Nice ice-cold AC. After the temps started warming up from the winter cold, I had no AC whatsoever. It's been over a month since I installed it, and it still works like a champ
Hey bud you really should REPOST this you've done a magnificent job on this video. REPOST you deserve way more views brother .
Again👍🏽 great video
Thank you so much! If I repost it, I'm not sure if that will change anything.
I love how the line was put on just to let it out in the air lol
Glad you enjoyed it, lol
Great Video!!
Amazing video. Very professional.
Thank you very much! We try our best
Let’s go baby!
Great video.. I've watched another where someone in the comments section advised to equal the amount of pag oil that's in the old (removed) compressor, I was shocked you put in 8oz. I guess in theory, there's oil in other parts of the system
I do it by the manufacturers recommendation.
Very well presented and cut. As I'm about to replace my A/C compressor in my Suburban, this was most helpful. Kudos!!!
Thank you!
I hope this video makes the repair simple and straightforward
Dude, it’s Zach from the trail. Did the vineyard lady end up getting you back to your friends?!?! You guys make it home?
Perfect timing! This is generally the same process for a 2010 avalanche right? 5.3L. Also, do you add more refrigerant after you start her up?
Yes, this should be the same process. You do. Add more refrigerant once the vehicle is running. Find the refrigerant amount under the hood and add refrigerant until you have added the correct weight of refrigerant.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thanks!
You bet!
Thank you
You're Welcome!
Quick question i try to replace the ac compressor lines. But they don't sit flat all the way around. The only spot that sit flat with the compressor is where the bolt is.
Right the ac compressor lines should be flat all the way around after you tight the bolt down?
I think so. I'm not completely sure what you mean, but it should look like it does in the video
How/what do you need to get refrigerant out of the system? Is that red tube connector you showed part of a kit you can buy or is it one of the A/C refill cans that is empty? Thank you
R134a was designed to be environmentally friendly. Releasing into the atmosphere shouldn't cause any issues.
The proper way to do it is with a refrigerant recovery machine. If you don't have one, it's going to be cheaper to let a shop do the whole refrigerant process for you.
Did you have to replace the high pressure electric plug?
Not quite sure which component you are referring to. If I did replace anything, It should be in the video. I don't think I had to change any electrical connectors.
Can i change the compresor my self to saves money and take it elsewhere to do the whole ac thing
Yes, you certainly can. They would just charge you to vacuum and fill the refrigerant
What happens if you don’t bleed the refrigerant before removing the a/c compressor
You will end up wearing the refrigerant...
Not advisable as it is a pressurized system.
Did it develop a tick before going out completely? My truck has a tick and I heard it could be the ac compressor. Did yours tick?
No, the clutch went out on mine.
you should try to isolate where the tick is coming from. Is it present with the ac engaged and not present with the AC disengaged?
@@dudewecanfixit its present when it’s not engaged. I don’t have a reason to use the ac right now considering it’s cold. But it way more pronounced while I’m in the cab driving. Especially on a cold start.
It sounds more like engine internals to me. Rotating accessories tend to whine or make constant noise. I don't think I've ever owned a high mileage Chevy V8 that didn't tick. Also, it has never caused a problem for me, but you should try to verify where it's coming from.
@@dudewecanfixitthe clutch on mine isn’t moving and I’m getting warm air coming out. Is that what happened to yours?
