Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf V, MK 5, Golf 5 - Years 2003-2008
Part: Air conditioning
Operation: Replacement of the air conditioning compressor and dryer

This video shows the process of replacing the air conditioning compressor and dryer on a Volkswagen Golf. We must start with the removal of the front grille and the bumper; disconnect and detach the front lights as well, then unscrew and remove the entire front structure of the car. Now that you have access to the condenser, remove its front grille and clean it with a jet of air. Then proceed to disconnect the defective compressor and install a new one. Also clean the condenser grille with a jet of compressed air. We then proceed with the removal and replacement of the dryer (without forgetting to also insert the O-rings). Now refit the condenser to the car and reposition the "nose" as before and then refit the bumper, headlights and grille as they were at the beginning.
