generally shops that have r-12 capabilities wont charge you to remove r-12
because they can re-use and/or sell it...

Subject: [A2-16v] AC compressor replacement...


All,
  So my Audi needs a new A/C compressor.  I can get a used one 
(with warranty) for $75, and R-134a conversion kits for $35.  The 
system is still charged with freon, though.  Now, my question is this:  
Can I just pop the valve on the A/C and vent the freon, then fill 'er up 
with the R-134a conversion?  I _fully_ realize that this is a huge 
environmental no-no, but it would greatly simplify my life.  Otherwise 
I'm going to have to pay $$$ to have someone take my freon out, 
install my new compressor, and put R-134a in.  I may not do it that 
way, but is it a viable option?
