Hello all. Needing a basic recharge on my AC it seems, been 6-7 years I think. Anybody know if this is a standard procedure that any place can hook up and fill, or should I go to my RS6 mechanic? He’s just been busy so thinking it might be a simple process. Cheers!

It's a simple process. Both the High & Low ports are easy to get at. Good thing you're across the border, WA state Gestapo just made R-134a unavailable to DIY'ers. Only qualified HVAC techs can purchase it. Sounds like the whole R-12 debacle from years ago.
