Default has anyone replaced an AC condenser on their xb

my condenser has a hole in it and needs replacement. has anyone replaced theirs on their own. is there a DIY somewhere. i looked around and didnt see it.

its $1100 plus at the dealership and theres no way i can afford that.

let me know everyone.

thanks

Wow, what a ripoff. Buy yourself a new condenser and dryer and install them yourself then take it to a radiator place and have it evacuated and recharged. You should be able to do it yourself for well under 300 bucks total.
