Condenser

The radiator at the front of the car where the hot compressed refrigerant gives up its heat.

How you know it is this

  • Cooling that is fine on the move and poor in traffic
  • An oily, dirty patch on the face of the condenser — refrigerant carries oil, so a leak leaves a stain
  • Fins packed with sand, dust and insects
  • Stone damage

Worth knowing before you buy

  • It sits in front of the radiator and takes every stone, and here it takes sand as well. Blocked fins are a cleaning job before they are a replacement.
  • An oily stain is how a refrigerant leak shows itself, because the oil travels with the gas. Look for the stain rather than for a drip.
  • Replaced with the receiver drier as a matter of course — the system is open anyway and the drier is cheap.
  • Poor cooling in traffic and good cooling on the move usually means airflow: condenser, fan or shroud.

What we need to quote it. The chassis number. The chassis number settles the generation, the body and usually the engine in seventeen characters — it is on your mulkiya. A photograph of the old part helps where there is more than one version.
