How to Replace the Air Conditioning Radiator on a Citroen C1

Model: Citroen C1 MK 1 - Years 2005-2014
Part: Radiator

If the air coming from the vents is not cold enough when the air conditioning is activated, it is likely that there is low gas in the circuit due to potential leaks from a broken air conditioning radiator; this radiator is located right in front of the engine coolant radiator, and to remove it, you must first take off the front bumper. Before proceeding with the disassembly, it is advisable to recover any residual gas in the system. Once the bumper is removed, disconnect the pipes from the radiator and remove the respective fastening pins to proceed with the replacement.
