A/C Refrigerant Oil Replacement

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Honda Pilot, 2007 Honda Pilot, and 2006 Honda Pilot. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Recommended PAG oil: DENSO ND-OIL 8

Add the recommended refrigerant oil in the amount listed if you replace any of the following parts.

A/C Condenser .........35 mL (1 1/6 fl.oz)

Front evaporator ......40 mL (1 1/3 fl.oz)

Rear evaporator .......30 mL (1 fl.oz)

Line or hose .............10 mL (1/3 fl.oz)

Leakage repair .........25 mL (5/6 fl.oz)

A/C Compressor ......For A/C compressor replacement, subtract the volume of oil drained from the removed A/C compressor from 180 mL (6 fl.oz), and drain the calculated volume of oil from the new A/C compressor: 180 mL (6 fl.oz) - Volume of removed A/C compressor = Volume to drain from new A/C compressor.

NOTE: Even if no oil is drained from the removed A/C compressor, don't drain more than 50 mL (1 2/3 fl.oz) from the new A/C compressor.
