) Drain the coolant ( - 5040A10 Air conditioning refrigerant CIRCUIT - Draining and Refilling ). - 7055B54 under-engine guard - r r - 7210E10 R.R. FRONT BUMPER1. Undo the bolt fixing the radiator/condenser upper support.2. Move the radiator/condenser assembly slightly backwards.

1. Undo the bolts fixing the air duct.2. Remove the air duct downwards.

1. Undo the bolts for the pipe connectors.2. Disconnect the connectors.

Seal the disconnected connectors, using suitable plugs, to prevent humidity and impurities from entering the system.

3. Undo the bolts fixing the condenser to the radiator.4. Remove the condenser downwards.

Refitting ( Removing

) Check that the condenser is intact and is not damaged and does not have deposits of dirt on the finned surface.Position the condenser.Tighten the bolts fixing the condenser to the radiator.Connect the pipe connectors.

Replace the O-rings for the connectors.

Only use green coloured seals, resistant to R134A coolant fluid.

Lubricate the thread of the connectors using anti-freeze.

Tighten the bolt to the recommended torque.
