When replacing entire components, additional refrigerant oil must be added equal to the amount that is removed with the component being replaced. Read the label on the oil container to verify that it is compatible with the R-134a system before adding any of it to the system. Note: if the condenser is being replaced because of damage (cracked or punctured), the receiver-drier should also be replaced. Removal: Have the system discharged and the refrigerant recovered by an air conditioning technician. Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Remove the bumper cover. On models equipped with a 6-speed automatic transaxle (6F24), remove the bolt retaining the transmission cooler line block to the left of the radiator. Also on models equipped with a 6-speed automatic transaxle (6F24), disconnect the transmission cooler lines from the condenser. Remove the retaining bolts and disconnect the refrigerant lines. Plug all open fittings to prevent entry of dirt and moisture. Remove the condenser upper mounting brackets. Remove the condenser lower mounting bolts. Carefully pull straight up to release the condenser from the lower clips, then remove the condenser from the vehicle. Installation: If you are replacing the condenser with a new unit, add 0.3-ounce (10 ml) of refrigerant oil to the replacement. Installation is the reverse of removal. Make certain to fully seat the condenser into the mounting clips and retainers. Install new O-rings onto the line fittings and lightly coat them with the proper refrigerant oil. Have the system evacuated, recharged and leak tested by the shop that discharged.

Discharge and recover the refrigerant, disconnect the negative battery cable, remove the radiator support brace, and tilt the radiator rearward. Remove the nut retaining the air conditioning lines, disconnect the refrigerant lines, and plug all open fittings. On 2008 and later models, remove the air conditioning condenser connecting line-to-radiator mounting bolts and the connecting line. Remove the mounting bolts securing the lower condenser bracket to the radiator and disconnect the automatic transaxle cooler lines. Carefully pull up to release the condenser from the lower clips and remove it from the vehicle.
