Clearly the compressor isnt being called, cycle the aircon or econ button on / off to make sure it's enabled. BMW i3 Electric Car

Did they not put a dye in it for you? It shows under UV light and makes leaks very easy to spot.

An extra question for this thread, does anyone have any suction / discharge or system pressures taken from a system running in good order, that would be a help when diagnosing faults Thanks Couldn't find any figures on the net, I am used to working on big Air Con / large fridge systems, but not tiny ones on cars |

Does that not vary with engine revs and temperatures? BMW i3 Electric Car

Yes you will get some variations, but for instance with the car sitting idling on the drive say at 25 degrees ambient temp would give you a datum point as an example of a a system in good order, ball park figures so to speak. |
