Anyone know where I can find the oil capacity for a Delphi A/C compressor? It is on my 2006 GM 8.1 and I just can't seem to find how much it takes. I am getting it serviced before I hit the road in May and the people that will service it need to know the oil capacity. Any help is appreciated.

Can you tell us what you are having done? Is the system not working? Or, are you just wanting them to check the 134a and see if the system needs 134a? If just checking and they want to know how much oil to use, DO NOT USE THEM. They have no clue as to what to do. IF they are installing a new compressor or pulling the compressor, there are numerous manuals out there that tell you the correct volume of oil to install. Most NEW compressors(rebuilt also) will have the oil supplied(correct volume) and you install it before you install the compressor. Doug
