Tis the same one on both models. Will check CAPS for the part no :wink:

Think I paid $300 for a s/hand one last year from a wrecker.

not really sure.....i went to regas and the guy said theres possibly a crack in the condeser....at least i think he said condenser....could be compressor?........anyway, they tried pumping gas in but it didnt stay....so watevers holding the gas has got a leak?

maybe i should get them to put the dye in to see where its leaking from first.....could it be as simple as a loose hose?

if he say it's the condenser most likely it is, yes could be the o-ring leaking too but ... i personally don't think so :?
The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.

well i was reffering to the aluminium core part that sits in between the radiator and the bumper, mine has a pin hole at the top but i can't be bothered to take it to a sheetmetal shop, get it welded and then put it back in... i wanted to do a straight swap.
