Hi all,
I've seen a few vids online of people diagnosing air con leaks using DIY aerosol kits with UV dye so that they can run the car for a bit and then investigate with a black light looking for where the offending leak is coming from.
My gen2 Cayman has a leak somewhere (regas worked for about a month) and I want to sort it myself if I can. The front end is currently off the car to do the coolant pipes and figured I might as well do it at the same time.
Has anyone done this before? Am I right in thinking I would just need some R134a and some compatible dye? (plus a delivery mechanism)
Best regards,
Jeff (ps I will post a tutorial if I manage to do it)
