Big big error in this video. That was *NOT* the low pressure line, it was the HIGH pressure line. And it does not go to 'the radiator' it goes to the A/C _condenser_ which sits in front of the radiator!
How thick was the material of the high pressure liquid line that broke open? What was the diameter and wall thickness of the OEM aluminum tube used? How long did it take to develop the hole just by rubbing? Thanks for the info!
Victor, where is the youtube video on how to vaccum the AC system after replacing the AC compressor on our Nissan Altima and how to fill it with Freon, cannot thank you enough for all the videos yu posted for our Nissan Altima
I have this same issue on the HIGH AC line. Has a tiny hole and all of my refrigerants are leaking out. Could I use something like JB Weld to patch the hole?
No. If you are experienced in welding aluminum, and have the correct equipment, you may be able to do a suitable repair. The replacement part is typically not very expensive though so it's usually better to just put in a new one.
Not for that particular one. This torque strut mount is mostly for supporting forward/backward motion, so the engine was still supported by other mounts.
100% same thing happened to my 2009 Nissan rogue I put some Freon in the can emptied out in 2 seconds but the weird thing is the gage went to the red instantly almost like there was 2 much pressure in the hose idk why because there was a hole in the hose

Thanks for the video! What if I can't find a replacement for my car? Can I maybe fix the tubing somehow?

Mine is 07.

When removing the engine mount did u have any extra support on the engine?

This is exactly what happened to mines !!!!
Idk much but isn’t that the high pressure line?
🤔You might be right, but I don’t remember now... Regardless, on of them!
Yeah, watched it again, you right, the cap has letter H on it.

Interesting how this is a common problem.
J b weld to the rescue 😅
