I believe that the connectors for R134a and R1234yf are different, so unless converters are used, it should be difficult to refill with the wrong refrigerant.
Sadly no longer a C5 owner :(

Yes, that's what I mentioned earlier and a good thing too as I can just see the outbreak of 'spontaneous combustions' all over the Country! :roll: :-D
