308 T9 Aircon Condenser fitment

[drayton11]

Hi

My aircon condenser is holed. I have ordered a new one, upon fitting there is a metal sleeve in the old old condenser where the feed pipe attaches that I have to remove & re use on the new one. This is damaged & beyond re use. Does anyone have a parts diagram or know what this part is called so I can source one. Many thanks

If you need an original, genuine part number or part diagram, and can't already find the info you need on the Forum, we do ask for a membership upgrade for official parts data as we are in turn charged for this. It will cover you for future part number requests for up to 2 years, so excellent value.

If interested, links are below, then pop your VIN up.

This is the official condenser for your vehicle. You don't have (2) or (5).

The bracket (5) is not fitted on models with the larger condenser.

(1) Air Conditioning Condenser (Surface of 19.3 DM2 & thickness of 12 MM), part: 9816746580, £503.10

In case it's any of these fittings, here is the Freon Tubing diagram. If any items on here let me have the item number:

Thanks. Unfortunately it doesn't show the part. In the exploded parts diagram it fits into the condenser bottom left and the flange shown is then bolted over it, with the two O rings shown fitted to it. I guess it's a trip to the dealers with the old condenser.

The only other ting I can see is the front frame:

If it's any of the bits at 'a', then I can't see them shown on the diagrams:

To close this off the adaptor should have been supplied with the condenser, I found an image on Ebay showing it present on a new unit, the condenser supplier eventually sent one out.
