Well i went to get my A/C gassed in my "new" 1999 CLK 230K...turns out it's another unforseen problem with the car...GREAT!:mad:

The condenser has a hole in it.

So with the condenser costing £80 roughly (from online shop) is it a job I can do myself?

I've also heard i should change the "drier"? at the same time?

All help is HUGELY appreciated, and it worth several e-beers.

Thanks,
R

I did it on our Accord, easy other than you technically have to have it degassed first, as there will most likely be some gas left in the system and venting it into the atmosphere is illegal.

I can't speak for the CLK but for the accord it was no more difficult than swapping a radiator. £80 is a good price.
