Volvo has introduced a fluorescent tracing agent manufactured by Right Solutions Inc. for after market use.
Facts about the tracing agent:
- The tracing agent is in liquid form. It is mixed with the A/C compressor oil in the climate control system.
- The tracing agent is light green in color. It is used to identify any leakage in the climate control system.
- If an UV lamp is used, it is easier to see where the fluorescent tracing agent is leaking out.
