This is the exact leak problem I'm having with my 2012 Laredo. I am amazed at how smoothly you did the job with such a precise artful method. I'm not a mechanic but you made it look as if I can do it too.
I think i like your way it's easier to take the bumper off . I've got a new transmission cooler ac condenser, and I've also got a universal transmission cooler. i just don't want to have to regas the AC. You're a very excellent instructor teacher
No need to drill it. Just punch the center in and it will actually pop out
(On your web page you say) "experience is everything",,, yes sir you're right and your skill set speaks volumes. You make it look easy. Thank you
a lot easier and quicker to just pull the core support. the condenser comes right out the top without too much hassle.
Thanks for the excellent instructions helped me tackle this job with confidence
Thank you. I think you’ve given me the courage to do this job myself. Not as bad as I thought.
I always learn something new when I watch your channel 👍 Thank you for sharing your Knowledge and Experience 👌
X VSJ thank you for watching!
Very helpful guide. Was able to get it done in the same day.
Very good instructions, details matters and you did a fantastic job.
I didn’t need this yet but I saved the video just in case I do .
Great video ! My 2012 is getting a new condenser today on a lifetime warranty!! Glad i got that 👍
Man!!!!!! Thank you so much; you just saved me a lot of money! It went better than i thought. What i thought was going to be a pain was taking the bumper on and off, but, it wasnt. For me the hard part was pushing those transmission lines in place; had to ball up a rag so i could get a grip on the line. And Your right about making sure they're in; it felt like they were in but whem i pulled really hard, they came out. You made it look easy......must have one heck of a grip! Once again, Thank you!
Excellent video! Thank you very much, great job! 👍👍👍
Hey thank you for this video you save me $1600 on at The dealer appreciate it I was looking for a video like this that’s how much the dealer will charge me to do the job Maybe I should take you and your family to eat lol
Great job very detailed
Great info
Don't have to remove front bumper or grill. Just take the brace cover off the top and you can get to condenser to remove.
are you sure you know what you are writing about???
You can but this looks a better way i think all depends on the person and you can clean the oil leaks up easily this way. 🤔 just about to do mine flipping a 🪙
@@judedavidson5453Hello, How did it go?
fantastic video
The 2 ac lines going into the condenser on my jeep are leaking freeon, really don’t want to do all this to fix it lol really don’t see a point right now since the service 4wd light is on after having a new module and t-case put in last year, over $2k in parts along with a new oil cooler last month, tally that up to $3k in it, probably going to just trade it off at this point
This was a very good how to. Thank you very much.
Thank you for watching!
Great video! Mine just failed, transmission fluid leaking. Had to have a local fix it.
Thank you Sir …Great Job with Instructions … Thank you 🍺
Thank you so much!
Thank You for your video. 🤝👌
Great job. Master!!
Felipe Manuel thank you!
2 chsrges of refrigerant in 2 weeks and still cant find the leak. Used dye the 2nd charge snd cant find it but can smell refrigerant if Im standing in front of the hood pretty good. Leaning towards checking the condenser soon.
U make it look easy
Thank you Sir
Thank you for watching!
This can be done so much easier, just remove the top rail with hood latch 4 bolts each side and two brace bolts from top rail unplug horns
Where did you get the clips go put back on on the sides?
Amazing Tutorial Man 👍
Thank you !
What was the time to remove and install before adding freon and fluids
Best explained, never i love you man
Cool video 😎
Nie trzeba zdejmować zderzaka da się wymienić chłodnice klimatyzacji od góry!
I'm doing a 2010 liberty & the ac lines are separate. One is bolted on like in your video & the other is crimped or something.
Great explanation! Thank you for taking the time to post this. I am tackling this job tomorrow on my 2014 Grand Cherokee. At the 8:00 minute mark you mention that you can drain the oil out of the A/C side just like you did the transmission side. What type of oil would you put in the A/C side? Thank you!
It's the MOPAR ATF4 👍
@@MikeHowy2111 The question was what oil goes in the A/C side.. not the transmission cooler side.
Putting ATF in your A/C is a disaster.
The correct oil is called PAG oil. All PAG oils are the same just different viscosity.
At most I wouldn't put more than 2 ounces in while doing this replacement. You typically don't find any sitting in the cooler.
I would give you a big hug if I could. Thank you! Subscribed and Liked!
I’m glad the video was helpful. Thank you for watching and subscribing!
Show how you topped off transmission fluid. Please...
This is an awesome and most thorough video I’ve seen regarding the condenser swap but I do have one question though. What is the box in front of the condenser? Somehow mines broke off and went back into in my condenser putting a hole in it now.
Did you figure this out ? I am having the same issue and I am completely clueless :(
@@glider726 are you meaning the oil cooler? It’s clipped on the front of the condenser with 2 plastic clips
@@Sammy-ju7cvIt's the power steering cooler for anyone else that may see this and be wondering.
My mechanic told me something from my power steering rubbed a hole in the condenser. Is this even possible?
Im guessing there wouldnt be to much difference to the 2013 SRT8 ?
Engine size.?
How can you tell if it’s the condenser
Good video brother. Do you have any tips because I’m in the process of replacing the AC condenser and the radiator , Do you have any recommendations as fluid wise , do I add new fluids since the radiator and the Ac condenser is new and also there is no Freon in the vehicle so I will have too add the Freon please contact/ reply ASAP because I’m doing this fix next weekend
How did you get on?
What about the refrigerant in the ac lines, how do you get that out before removing the condenser
If it's leaking, it will come out on its own which I believe is the reason for replacement. I found a leak in one today using dye and will be replacing it in a few days. The refrigerant usually leaks out in a day.
Very good explanation. Thank you for not wasting time with needless jokes or plugging tool brands...even though I see you bleed RED...
Good job 👍❤💚
Hey bro if my ac blows cold air and I hear the clutch go on but then starts blowing air is that the compressor or what could it be i charge the freon
I’m trying to understand your question. You’re saying that it starts out OK and then stops working?
No when I turn the car on and then turn the Ac on it blows a little bit of cold air and then it doesn’t blow anymore Cold air
@@edwinmejia3199 Sounds like you’re describing a blower motor issue. Either the resistor or the motor itself.
I realized the leak was coming from the a condesnor, after I had it completely ripped apart.
Is it absolutely necessary to have the ac drained 1st? It would be difficult to put it all back together just to have the freon drained.
Any advice would be appreciated
Yes as it poisonous
@@MikeHowy2111 Thanks Mike. I had a buddy drain it for me. Then we refilled it once I completed the work.
I appreciate the feedback
My 12 Durango, is doing the same thing. How much does this job cost?
1400.00
When I did mine I added trans fluid after all was installed just used pliers on trans tube seal cap was a lot easier to fill no mess
How much oil?
@@brannangraycarvallo298 5quarts they say you have to use special tool and temperature gage but if you put in 4 quarts warm it up and go to menu it tells trans temp when you put it in gear so I got it to 170 recommended 165-170 and stopped at 5 quarts
A forget to tell you I changed trans filter but only about . 5 of a quart came out from condenser/cooler. 1/2 quart
The link for the condensor?
Can't as the dealers change all the time sio eBay away or google 👍
Show me how to install a AC condenser on a 2016 Jeep Patriot
I've always wanted a Jeep but man it's a puzzle
It’s amazing how shitty these things are constructed, every connector and mounting screw seems disposable. Seems like a very easy job, can you just add the ATF to the trans pan ?
It's best the way he does it to minimize air pockets and damage to the new condenser 👍
Got a quote to get mine replaced, thought I'd check out how much of a job it is before committing the quoted expense. Strewth...he can have every cent of the quoted price 🤨
Keep up the good work, god knows jeeps are junk. Repairs are a monthly item on these things.
