Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Adapters for setting up purging circuits
| The following table contains the various adapters that are
necessary to connect the air conditioner service station to the
refrigerant circuit for purposes of purging and to bridge the
removed reservoir or collector and expansion valve
(vehicle-specific). |
| Using a filling hose with 5/8 -18 UNF connections (short
version, e.g. charging hose -VAS 6338/31-), join both adapters,
which were installed in place of the reservoir or receiver
(included in adapter case VW/Audi passenger vehicle set -VAS
6338/1-). |
| If a purged refrigerant circuit is not going to be
reassembled straight after purging, leave the adapters on the
connections and seal the connections at the adapters using the
sealing caps -VAS 6338/30- (from adapter case VW/Audi passenger
vehicle set -VAS 6338/1-). |
| Depending on the type of air conditioner compressor and the
period of production, different joining and sealing techniques
have been applied in the refrigerant circuit
→ Heating, air conditioning. |

 Note
| In the Passat 2015 and Passat Estate 2015 with BiTurbo
engine, the refrigerant circuit is not flushed. In these
vehicles, it would require too much effort to remove the
expansion valve. If the air conditioner compressor is defective,
check whether filings have entered the condenser or whether
there are filings at the condenser outlet. If there are only
filings on the inlet side but not on the outlet side, renew only
the condenser and the air conditioner compressor. |

There are two versions of the
fluid receiver: See vehicle specific repair manual.
| Fluid receiver with permanently fitted dryer |
| – |
Can be flushed through. |
| – |
After flushing, install a new receiver. |
| Receiver with desiccant bag or cartridge |
| – |
Remove desiccant bag/cartridge and seal fluid receiver. |
| – |
After purging, install a new desiccant bag/cartridge. |

(or a drilled out expansion valve

| Remove restrictor in refrigerant line to heat exchanger for
high-voltage battery, and drill it out (see notes below)
→ Anchor. |
|
Note
| In the Golf Hybrid 2014, the refrigerant circuit is flushed
in 2 cycles. For the first cycle, the adapter for the shut-off
valve -N541- is open, and the adapter for shut-off valve -N542-
is closed. This will cause the refrigerant circuit with the
evaporator in the heater and air conditioning unit to be
flushed. For the second cycle, the adapter for the shut-off
valve -N541- is closed, and the adapter for shut-off valve
-N542- is open. This will cause the refrigerant circuit with the
evaporator in the heat exchanger for high-voltage battery to be
flushed ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. Gr. 87; Refrigerant
circuit; System overview - refrigerant circuit (repair manual
for the specific vehicle). |
Note
|
|
|
| The illustration shows a refrigerant line
-A- with a permanently installed
restrictor -B- (without strainer).
This refrigerant line must be drilled open with a suitable 5 mm
drill bit (remove the restrictor if it is removable), and it
must be cleaned before it is installed in the purging circuit.
Renew the refrigerant line which has been drilled open after
purging has been completed
→ Electronic Parts Catalogue. |
| The diameter of the shown restrictor hole
-B- is approx. 0.7 mm. Depending on
the refrigerant line version, this restrictor is permanently
installed or it can be removed. For the removable version a
strainer may be fitted to prevent the restrictor hole from being
blocked by suspended particles. |
