Going to change all components on my vehicle. Compressor, Condensor and evaporator. It list total oil capacity of 4.1oz but for the individual component listed as a/c compressor preloaded with 1.4, condenser 1.0 and evaporator 3.0. which adds up to more than 4.1oz. So do I do less in evap and condenser? Thanks

OK, what I would do is drain the oil out of the new compressor and add 4 ounces and that's all. Once the compressor is installed and everything else is installed, rotate the compressor in the normal rotation direction about 10 revolutions. I never put any oil in the EVAP because it's not necessary. This is a low volume system so you don't want to overload it with oil.
Be sure to flush out all the lines during assembly.
Never, ever use a reman compressor.
I have to ask though, why are you replacing all those components on a 2014 car? Did the compressor and evaporator fail at the same time?

Sounds like a good plan.
I hope you realize that evap is 12 hours.

Yeah looking forward to that, I am not officially a mechanic but I have been working on cars for 30 years in the car business. I am in Texas, just wish I had an air condition garage to do it in.

Good luck. It's an electronic nightmare behind that dash.
