    Really good job done! 👍
    At my 451 mhd is also the air conditioning condenser defective. The workshop estimates the repair costs at about 500€, rather more. When I saw your video, I know why.
    Unfortunately, I can not do it myself.

    One thing I would like to see from you is how to put the smart car on 4 stands. Can you do that?

    New front panel is only 127 pounds from Mercedes trade price Blackpool dealership

      Good price. Given the vulnerability of this panel, I’m thinking that it is definitely likely to fracture where mine had with even the most minor knock. The front part is literally right behind the lower front panel.

      Just bought the front panel and the guy at Mercedes had to check price because he thought it was to cheap,but that’s original Mercedes part

      I find it's always worth a call to MB to get a price on parts ... they're not generally as expensive as you expect

    What kind of oil was needed to pump into the system ?

    I did this whole procedure but had no o rings for the new condenser.. Now I have new o rings but I can't bring myself to go through all this again 🙄

      It’s quite a job and not one to do twice. Condensers should really come with the required o-rings!
