Hi,

 

Can anyone get me a new AC expansion valve (pt 88515). Just spoken to Toyota and they want £72 plus VAT :(

 

Car is booked in next week to have new AC compresor fitted and just been told I may need this too.

 

cheers

Pretty sure I have a couple of those.

 

Can take to the open day if you wish.

Hi Martin,

 

I'm looking for a new one, as I'm having the AC done with new & refurbished parts (inc compressor, cheers) to safeguard against future failure (gonna cost a fair bit for labour). If you have a new one, I could arrange to pick up over the weekend.

 

cheers

Cheers mate, but already booked in at Air Con place in Bath for next week, who have refurb'd a used compressor for me. I've ordered a new valve from Toyota, asked for 10% discount and he gave it to me no problems!! thanks for the offer though. :)

 

How long would you say the whole task should take? What does the guy actually need to do to remove/replace compresor, drier, valve etc?? Don't want to get ripped off and pay for needless work if he removes stuff he doesn't need to.

 

Thanks for any pointers I can pass on which may save some pennies

 

Edit - yes I've got a new receiver/drier too
