Thanks as always!

Hi Mat, I have a 1886.5 928S and used the Griffith's kit. Don't forget to get an expansion valve, as well as a stubby Allen Head ratching wrench (ratching 1/4" with 1/4" Allen Head bits work as space is tight under the cowl.)

Kit from Griffiths is complete along with O-rings. Well thought out and, at least on my 928S, the factory AC bracket is replaced with the Keuhl bracket. Job isn't to tough to do, though I did order online a 90 degree low-pressure valve to fit the factory low pressure port. This makes accessing it under the hot radiator coolant hose a little more friendly.

Kit works great and I have working AC now. After replacing my (missing) outside thermister and hose, and testing the interior temperature port (smoke machine works great here), my automatic AC is working great.

We installed the Keuhl kit on my son's 944 last year and it's continuing to perform admirably on that car too. Would recommend Griffiths and the Keuhl compressor kit.
