The refrigerant oil used in R-134a refrigerant systems is a synthetic-based, polyalkylene glycol (PAG), wax-free lubricant. Mineral-based R-12 refrigerant oils are not compatible with PAG oils, and should never be introduced to an R-134a refrigerant system.

There are different PAG oils available, and each contains a different additive package. The Denso 10S17 and 10S20 A/C compressors used in this vehicle are designed to use ND-8 PAG refrigerant oil. Use only this type of refrigerant oil.

After performing any refrigerant recovery or recycling operation, always replenish the refrigerant system with the same amount of the recommended refrigerant oil as was removed. Too little refrigerant oil can cause A/C compressor damage, and too much can reduce A/C system performance.

Your vehicle uses , R134 , any part you replace will require 2 oz of oil per part .

use medium weight oil (100) only if you replace a part containing oil.

if your just recharging the systen , oil shouldnt be necessary
