Hole in AC condenser

Who knows how much pressure on the AC condenser , I have a leak . Must have been a rock punched a hole in it . I am debating trying to fix it ?

 

If you know the leak is in the condenser just replace it, its probably cheap enough that fixing isn't worth it. If you don't know for sure get a can of refrigerant with the dye in it and put it in there to find the leak. IMO a/c leaks are easy enough to fix DIY, but then take it in to have a negative pressure put on it and recharged.

 

pay the deductible, have the insurance fix it under comprehensive. rock pitched at you from another auto. Ski

 

High side pressures run 200-300psi typically

 

You might as well bite the Bullet and replace the condensor.........

 

You need the special 1234yf refrigerant. You can replace the condenser yourself but I would have it recharged professionally for piece of mind.

 

depening on the year, if it does have the 1234yf, that stuff is astronomical in pricing, alone. Ski
