| Subject: | Service Information on Changes to A/C System Oil Charge on Production A/C Compressors |
| Models: | 1999 Saturn S-Series vehicles built between and including VINs XZ298723 and XZ298804 and vehicles built after and including VIN XZ328093 equipped with A/C (RPO C60) |
Purpose
The purpose of this bulletin is to provide information about changes to the A/C system oil charge.
Vehicles built within the above breakpoints contain an additional 50cc of PAG oil. This makes the total A/C system oil charge 200cc.
These vehicles can also be identified by locating the label on the rear of the compressor. On this label, "OIL QTY" will read "200cc." (Refer to illustration in this bulletin.)
It is necessary for the A/C system to maintain an oil charge of 200cc. In order to maintain the appropriate oil charge, refer to "Compressor Oil Measurement" in the Service section of the 98-99 HVAC Service Manual.
