Hi all.

I buddy here at work asked me to help top off the AC in his 1998 320. I took a real quick look and was curious if the port shown in the attached pic is the low pressure/service port. Sure would be convenient.

Any help with the location is appreciated.

the lo press or suction port is the small one, usually has a blue cap on it.

That's it.

Len, the port I pointed out or a port with a blue cap?

Thanks!

That looks like it. The high-side service port is probably at the condenser; you get to that by removing the outer fan guard and a small cover plate at the top left of the auxiliary fan shroud.

My '96 has black caps on both service ports.

CAn someone describe where the low pressure port is for A/C in a W210 E420?
