Refrigerant Oil Adding Capacities

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Jaguar XE and 2019 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Rotate the A/C compressor shaft at least 6 to 8 turns when draining the refrigerant oil.

ITEM	MILLILITERS
A/C condenser core and desiccant bag	Add 25ml oil
A/C evaporator	Add 30ml oil
A/C compressor	Drain old A/C compressor. With drain plug removed and ports uncapped, rotate shaft to remove A/C compressor oil and measure the amount of oil captured. Drain new A/C compressor into a clean vessel. With drain plug removed and ports uncapped, rotate shaft to remove oil. Then add back a quantity of the new oil that is identical to the quantity of oil removed from the old A/C compressor. However, if this quantity is less than 30ml, then make it up to 30ml.
A/C lines - if air conditioning has been operational.	Add 5ml oil per A/C line
A/C system after flushing - with new compressor installed	No oil should be used- new oil in new compressor is sufficient
A/C system after flushing - without a new compressor installed - remaining A/C compressor oil is to be drained. Compressor and expansion valve must not be flushed (removed from the circuit)	Add 80ml oil
A/C compressor drain plug	Torque 15Nm
