The A6 has an oil reservoir, i think it stores about 4-5 ounces.

Measure how much oil is in the old compressor when you remove it. The aluminum compressor requires maybe 4-5 ounces less total oil in the system because it doesnt have. A reservoir, i could find any specs on how much less oil the system would need with it.

Measure oil removed with medical 5-6 ounce irrigation syringes, there pretty cheap on amazon.
wooden pulling a vacuum on the system evacuate all the oil and give me a fresh start? I have a friend with a vacuum pump and gauges who is going to help me once I get it mountedmounted
