Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used condenser
- Check for bent or crushed fins — significant fin damage reduces heat dissipation and A/C performance.
- Look for pinhole leaks by inspecting the tube surfaces for green dye residue (from prior leak detection).
- Confirm the inlet/outlet line fittings match your vehicle — condenser plumbing varies across model years.
- Inspect the mounting brackets and rubber isolators. Missing isolators cause rattling and premature wear.
