2007 Mini A/C Capacity

I have a 2007 Mini and lost my freon after a hole was rubbed in a hose. I fixed the leak and now need to recharge the system. Does anyone know how much freon I need to put in?

Thanks.

You probably can't do it. The system needs to be evacuated first. (really big vacuum drawn on the system to remove all moisture)


Take the car to a professional.

Already did

We evacuated the system and put one can in just to test the leak and it is holding but we weren't sure how much more to put in without waiting for the manual to come out in September.
