replacing AC condenser 2008 E70

Anyone know where I can find instructions on changing my AC condenser. Hopefully without removing the dash completely.

ShantF1 is an unknown quantity at this point
Btw if your doing it yourself.... There is a glue that you soak the screw in so it dosn't rattle... An auto part store should have it... Best of luck..

The condenser is in front of the engine, not behind the dash which is where the evaporator is.

YEs that is right. I mean the evaporator do you have any advice on changing it?

Sorry, I don't. On other BMWs I've had, the center console and glovebox area had to be removed. The hoses connected to the expansion valve get disconnected, the evaporator temp sensor is pulled out, and then the evaporator slides out sideways under the passenger footwell.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.
