the low-pressure
side connection (to
second evaporator)
♦ Adapter -VAS
6338/11- for seal‐
ing the high-pres‐
sure side connec‐

• The adapter may
need an additional
hole (see below) so
that the refrigerant
pipes can be cov‐

♦ Adapter -VAS
6338/4- for con‐
necting A/C Service
Station to the high-

valve in the
refrigerant
pipes and
for the sec‐

installed
(or the re‐
moved ex‐
pansion
valve is
drilled for
flushing
and instal‐
led again

Note
♦
In vehicles with two evaporators, refrigerant circuit is flushed
in two work steps.
♦
Currently the front and rear expansion valves have the same
connections (only the control characteristics are different)
