High pressure hose stays warm even when ac compressor is running, condenser and dryer were replaced two years ago, I've read here there are cases of expansion valve fail but I can't seem to find any "how to" anywhere. It's a shame, because it's a major dashboard out job. Even on LHD Omegas

Update:
I took old girl 2.5, which now has new ac compressor, to recharge with 950 grams of gas.  Happy to report she changed into a freezer box today, ac works really nice.

Then I took 3.0 with known good compressor to recharge, and there is no better result than before.
The system took 950 grams, started compressor clutch and no cold air from vents.
It seems to have bigger issue.

No, it wasR134a...problem is it was only filled up with 700 grams...enough to engage the copressor, not enough to properly cool.

And I did some dismanteling of the dead ac compressor..the are metal parts you don't want to see in it...so to the system cleaning it goes anyway :-\...this will cost an arm and a leg all new parts included.
Talking about the new ac compressor I bought fee days ago, I installed it on my other V6 with dead ac.
I'll take her to recharge on monday, insist to fill it with 900 grams and will report on the result. It should work

Well, I'm going to try this on my other Omega...hopefully the mechanic will be willing to fill the system with 200 grams more

Did you ensist on filling the system with 900 grams?
Because they just find the car make and model on the ac machine and it says 700g on display...so the machine does all the work, no brain involved

Thanks for the advice, system isn't blocked for sure, because the pressure isn't high enough, when the compressor is running. It should be around 20 yes, but it doesn't reach that pressure at all. The system took 700g of gas both times, because I went to two diferrent ac refill places

I replaced the ac compressor, toom it to regas and more problems showed up...It holds vacuum, ac clutch works as it should, but no cold air from vents....The ac line was freezing cold at the first start, but than remain warm/hot after starting ac again. Anyone had this issue?

So...should I leave amount of oil inside new ac compressor as it is and just take the car with new compressor directly to regas? No worries?

So, just as a test, to see the amount of oil needed, I took ac compressor off my other 2.5V6, and no oil came out :-[ ...Now I'm at the starting point again.

Entire system takes 8 oz or 236 ml... If I can believe allmighty internet, condenser, evaporator and both ac lines contain app. one oz each, when you replace compressor. So the amount of oil added to it should be 236ml minus  118 ml which is already in the system.

It's slowly getting over my head...any experienced member here who did this procedure and lives today to tell?
