Default Freon

I have read the post on this subject, but I can't find the high side to add the freon. I found the low side under the car, but I don't think the clamp is going over the vavle properly. I am using r-134. Can some one shed some light on this one.

Default if it is like the S4/S6's (i think it is), you only have a high side

it is on the condensor, in front of the radiator. The port on the back of the compressor is not used. You need a machine to recharge the a/c.

I have a 95 A6. so you are saying that the high side is the only place to recharge the freon on my model car?
