Air Con Condenser Replacement

[cancunia]

Yeah, I think I might try the old school soapy water test on the valves while my system still has some gas in it. From what I've read elsewhere, it's the nitrogen & dye test that I'll need to be confident that there are no other leaks.

Forget water and soap buy a can of Rocol leak detector for a tenner off ebay, should be much much better.
Before retiring I used loads of the stuff in work when checking industrial chillers, gas installations and cryogenics and it was worth the cost of purchase.

No leak detection required, educated guess of condenser appears to have been correct. Aircon running nice and cold just in time for the weather

With notes off here and finding a youtube of change of Aircon condenser on a Citroen C2 here Click
Was able to change mine. 
Took the front bumper off follow youtube notes found here Click

Had to take the Front bumper off due to two screws holding the Radiator in place at the top, once removed it moved freely. 
Left the pipes connected and was able to unscrew and remove condenser pipes and slide the condenser out from its place.
