R-1234yf Freon Service at Bay Diagnostic
As Bay Diagnostic continues to provide state of the art equipment and services to meet the needs of your vehicle, we would like you to know about the new R-1234yf refrigerant that may affect your vehicle.
R-1234yf is a refrigerant that is being used in newer model vehicles. In 2018, about 50% of new vehicles are being manufactured with air conditions systems that use the R-1234yf. This is because the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has marked R-134a as an unacceptable refrigerant type through their SNAP program. Beginning with the model year 2021 newly manufactured vehicles must be made to use R-1234yf.
Car manufacturers that are using the new R-1234yf include but are not limited to:
- Audi
- BMW
- Buick
- Chevrolet
- Ford
- GMC
- Honda
- Hyundai
- Kia
- Lexus
- Lincoln
