Hoping I can get the replacement line in a couple of weeks because August is going to be hot. |

One more thing: I'm looking at the part numbers for the line and I see the following:
88706A TUBE SUB-ASSY, LIQUID, A 88706‑52440 AIR CONDITIONER-MANUAL(B/RESI COMP/VARI) 1 $489.67 88706‑52450 AIR CONDITIONER-DEALER KIT 1 $427.83 What's the difference? I think 88706‑52440 is the correct part but I just want to be sure before I order it. |

OK - From your VIN, just the 88706‑52440 part number is highlighted in green, indicating that it is the part used on your car.

Haha so I brought it back to the dealership for S&G and they said it was going to be $558 for the part and $336 for the labour. Plus when I asked about the dryer unit they said they wouldn't replace it ... NO THANKS!
I ended up getting the parts for just over $200CAD and will do the install myself. Also, Toyota will do the evac/refill for $100 with no charge on the freon since my system is still considered "full." |

Just an update:
Removed the old AC line today and installed the new one. What a B*** to take out and install LOL. The easiest way is to remove the passenger headlamp, take off the front bumper cover, and also there is a meaningless metal support strap on the LOW pressure line that you have to remove before you can get it back on without bending the crap out of the line. I took my time and it was roughly 1h:30 minutes, FAR from the 3h:30 the dealership quoted me (they said it would take me 5 hours since I wasn't pro). Can't wait to see the look on their faces tomorrow when I get it recharged. PS: I hope nothing leaks tomorrow otherwise I will be right embarrassed lol. PPS: I didn't replace the receiver/dryer on my car since for some reason it is different than what the repair manual states. It says that the top and bottom have a 10mm hex removal point but mine was an entirely self contained unit with no way of removing it unless I replaced the entire condenser. I had someone else look at it and they said most likely it would be fine. So now I have an extra receiver/drier desiccant bag with no use. |
