The 2008 Nissan Altima 2.5 requires 18 ounces of freon, with the recommended choice being HFC-134a. You can easily buy this type of freon at large retail stores, automotive shops, and reputable online sites. To refill the freon in your car, start by removing the reservoir cap and using a funnel to pour in the fresh fluid. Once done, replace the cap and close the car hood before starting the engine. This process ensures your vehicle has the correct amount of refrigerant.

    The most effective method involves using a vacuum pump to remove all the old refrigerant and any air from the system. After that, you can add 18 ounces of refrigerant using the appropriate fittings and a pressurized container. It's not as simple as just opening a cap and pouring it into the tank since the system is pressurized and cannot be accessed like a power steering reservoir. To successfully put in the refrigerant, you will need the pressurized can with the fittings or an AC machine. Good luck!

    Yes, the previous commenter was correct. I was completely lost with the initial response, as it seemed as though the person was suggesting something like an oil change. It's frustrating how some individuals online provide such foolish answers. Surely, isn't there someone monitoring these responses? That was an incredibly nonsensical answer. Thank you.
