Honda Fit: A/C Refrigerant Oil Replacement (With A/C)

Second generation (2007-2026) / Honda Fit 2007-2026 Repair Manual / HVAC / Cooling / A/C Refrigerant Oil Replacement (With A/C)

Special Tools Required

Recommended PAG oil: SP-10

It is important to have the correct amount of refrigerant oil in the A/C system to ensure proper lubrication of the A/C compressor. Too little oil damages the A/C compressor; too much oil reduces the cooling capacity of the system, and can produce high vent temperatures.

Add the recommended refrigerant oil in the amount listed if you replace any of the following parts:

A/C condenser (including receiver/dryer).

25 mL (5/6 fl·oz)

Evaporator.

35 mL (1 1/6 fl·oz)

Line or hose.

10 mL (1/3 fl·oz)

Receiver/dryer.

10 mL (1/3 fl·oz)

Leakage repair.

25 mL (5/6 fl·oz)

A/C compressor.

Oil drainage is unnecessary at the time of compressor replacement.
