AC leak :- how to stop this ?

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by Ottawa Vehicles, Jul 21, 2006.

  1. Hello Volvo expert or who ever fixed this problem,

    I was told my dealer that my AC is leaking(small) through the
    evaporator(if I fill, the AC will be there for only 5 to 7 months).

    Is there any solution to stop this leak ?

    Can I change the evaporator by myself ? Is it hard to do ?

    How about we start by you telling us the year, make and model of the
    vehicle?

    Evaporator is a pain to replace, 8-9 hours and requires special tools.
    Try a AC Stop Leak product first, you can find the at Ebay. It has
    worked fine for me for over a year now and before that i needed a
    refill every 6 months.
