Title: A/C condenser - Where from & how much ?
Post by: Glenn on 24 October 2006, 14:56:09

It looks like I'm going to have to replace my A/C condenser, it appears that the system has lost pressure and stopped working, not sure if it's the condenser but the lower 3 or 4 rows of fins are falling out anyway so might as well replace it while the systems depressurised. Then get the system checked for leaks.
Does anyone know of a preferable condenser supplier ? Are the cheaper ones OK ? I see there's an ad on Ebay by Aircon Medic at £125 + £10 postage, seems like a reasonable deal to me ?
Could do with a more cost effective source of testing and refilling if anybody has any suggestions ?

Thanks

I'm hoping I can have everything fixed and working at the same time at some point during my ownership.............. :-?

Just to let you know, they're quoting £173 now, guess I'll be giving the ebay one a try.

Cheers

But you may still need a new receiver dryer as if you have had a leak and moisture has got into it it will not work properly.

Bought my condencer from a company online called AutoVaux, saw them at a couple of Vauxhall shows.
Cost including vat & delivery was £148.00 part was sent direct from Hella.
