I'm in need of some sort of "How To..." guide or instructions on removing the Air Con from my '97 WRX - Any assistance mucho appreciated! Mark

 

What parts do you want to remove? All of it?

The condensor in front of the rad should be the easiest bit.

Is there still gas in the system? You will need to get a specialist to remove it before working on it.

 

You can unofficially de-gass this yourself pretty easily even though it's technically illegal, but how would anyone know?

Just take the belt off the compressor, then remove the compressor, then remove the small rad in front of the big rad, then the rest of the pipes in the engine bay, i just left the unit on mine behind the dash in place

 

Yea, there'll still be gas in the system as i've not touched it at all... I'll probs have to research it abit more before starting

 

By posting about it on a public forum.

 

Hi Mark..

I used to work at a Subaru Dealership and used to install the Aircon kits. Amazingly i have kept the fitting instructions. I am going to post them out to another chap on here so if you want pm me your address and ill post them to you to!!

You should be ok taking it off yourself.....just work backwards though the instructions!!

Chris

 

That would be great mate, thanks very much!

I'll PM you now

 

Does anybody want to scan this in and post it up for reading? I would be looking into removing mine also

 

It's that easy you don't need instructions! Just pull it apart
