Correct Freon for 2014 Ram 1500 Slt 5.7 Hemi

[Hattan]

So I had a couple of freon's and I tried them all and they do not fit on the fill tube part. I searched online it says Ram takes a different kind then I check again it says it takes the regular 134a's. Can someone send me a link of where I can get the correct freon and my freon is completely gone when we had to replace the motor so I might need a bigger one or whatever you guys recommend. Thank you!

Take it to your local shop, It's literally 100$ to get it done properly and takes 30 minutes. The kits you can buy at the parts store are absolute garbage.

Might be R1234yf refrigerant. Like DILLIGAF said, have a shop do it. If you just need a top off and leak sealer/dye, the diy ones are ok, but the full fill is better at a shop. They will put in the correct amount of refrigerant and compressor oil. Do it wrong and you could be buying new A/C parts

Should be a decal on core support which states what kind and the weight of charge needed for a complete refill. The change between 134a and1234yf occurred during the 2014 model year . It may have either .

Should it be a dodge dealership or any workshop?

Probably be cheaper at an independent shop. Not all of them do AC work, so I'd call around first.

You cannot just put "freon" in. The system needs to be properly evacuated and charged by weight. Also, just an fyi, Freon is a brand name, just like Nike, it's called refrigerant. Some of them are explosive as well. I'd recomend bringing it to a local independant shop, will cost less than 100$.

Flammable yes which 1234-YF is, explosive not really unless you play with R-290.
As for the 1234-YF refrigerant, it's going to cost bit more than $100 for them to touch it, the refrigerant is over $100/lbs
