Hi
I have a T5.1 Shuttle that has been converted. The air con doesn't work so i took it for a re-gas and was told it had a leak from the rear of the van. The garage has had a look and said that the expansion valve has been blocked off with a rusty plate, two bolts and a load of sealant. The garage said they dont want to bodge it further and will put it back to how it was.
Any ideas how I can fix this? I presume the rear aircon has been removed and this would of fed one of the original pipes?
I have read about people blanking off pipes in the engine bay when the rear system is no longer required.
The mechanic is going to take some pictures before he puts it back together. I asked him for the part number of the valve so at least i could have a look online at some pics of one. its 7h0820679c
Thank you
Andy
