C43 aircon condensor

[timk]

Just had my a/c (C43) tested as it was not working, and apparently the source of the problem is a leaking condensor. Quote seems to be £140 to supply, £90 to fit, and £75 to test and re-gas, plus VAT. I don't think this is an OEM part but should be a decent make. Have had a look at Euro Car parts who have condensors for my car around the £80 mark (sounds a bit too cheap and possibly of iffy quality).

Does anyone know where to source an OEM condensor at reasonable money?

I bought mine from GSF parts. The fitment on the first one was a bit dodgy-it had been dropped by royal mail. The replacement was better and was almost OEM standard.

Anyone have a link to source the correct part number? Found one one Ebay which is genuine Mercedes part but not sure it will fit a C43

There are two different types. One for the lesser engines and the other for the bigger engines ie 250TD, V6's and the AMG's.
