Air Conditioning Condenser

Can anyone tell me if they have replaced their Air Con condenser before? is it a big job?

Would it pay me to replace myself and then get the system Gassed up or is it easier to let a company do the whole job.

I am told that it will be 3 hours labour plus parts coming to £380.


Any advice aprreciated.


Thanks Porsche 968 Cabrio

Is it definately the ac condenser, not the ac compressor ? I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.

It is in the garage now having suspension bushes looked at. They have done tests on the Air Con and say it is the condenser as it is a behind the bumper this will need to be removed hence the labour costs. The have done a leak test on it. Porsche 968 Cabrio
