[QUOTE="6UE5t, post: 1064590873, member: 103722"] Even though AC compressor is a closed system but it's still subject to heat and continuous forces from the piston movements. You just have a look at the oil, it will get very dark, then compare with the new oil and you'll see a huge difference. Yes I change at around 40-50k km intervals which for me around once every 2.5-3.5yrs, so IMHO it's really worth it just to spend about rm200-300 per change. User manual might not mention, but the regular maintenance schedule should have it. I think my Livina maintenance schedule has it at 40k km, and I think your Sylphy also should have (not sure about Perodua though). I know this is one of the most neglected maintenance of a car. So when I buy a used car, this AC oil is the first thing I'd also change and they're ALWAYS very dark when it came out! [/QUOTE]
