I'm Awesome
We just did one in the shop yesterday.
I can't stand the suspense--how much did it cost and what all did you guys do to repair it?

I hope I'm not being redundant here, so here I go.Yes rear evaporator core, not condenser... thanks for the correction.
If all the rear lines were needed and with estimated labor to replace, I was quoted $1800. Not a cost I can justify. For now I'll keep my fingers crossed that it will hold refrigerant for long enough to get me throught the summer.
I wanted to go down this path and I did as a temporary measure, however since my children travel with me on long holiday trips this solution is no good for 2 reasons:I hope I'm not being redundant here, so here I go.
There is a rear ac block plug kit on eBay for under $10, and installation videos on YouTube. Rear air is not necessary for the front ac to work properly, but both share the R134a charge. If you plug the two lines under the hoid (after a full evacuation) it will mist likely not take as much R134a to recharge the system. Im removing the rear ac components because I am
1) I'm doing a camper build, and i am looking for valuable real estate in the back of my Burb,
2) I no longer need the seats and AC for anyone other than my girlfriend and I.
The rear AC is reliant on the main system, not vice versa.
Have a great day!
