What Is it ? Air Con ?

[C33JAY]

Dont beat me up over this but what is the small resevoir in front of the Rad with 2 x pipes leading to it and a Gray Plastic cap with an H on it, is this something to do with the Air Con ?

And what should it look like through the small round viewing window ?

Thanks and I have looked around a lot on the Forum but not found anything similar hence the question :)

It's the high pressure side of the aircon system :thumbs: I think it shouldn't be bubbly and that's about it.

It's the dryer for the Air conditioning. With the A/C on it should be clear with only a few small bubbles. If it is cloudy, the system is likely low on R-32 refrigerant. Normal operation is that it will show some bubbles upon start up of the A/C the clear within about a minute. To test turn the climate control to auto and the temperature to lowest setting. As Ian says the grey cap covers the high pressure side valve. This is used for checking the A/C system pressures. If I recall correctly the high pressure side should normally be about 200-250 psi and the low side is 25-45 psi depending on ambient temperature and RPM. Sight bubble is actually very good at determining the status of the A/C fill.
