I was wondering, before I splash some cash, if someone can just confirm my shopping list, only one line leaking but will replace both, from the PET diagram attached I think i need:
Leading evidence: 'Replace both' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace both' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Replace drier whilst it's degassed, they're only about £15

Better spending your money on replacing the drier whilst it's degassed, they're only about £15 for an after-market one.

I wouldn't bother replacing the other one (10) as this seldom goes.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Evening, I have sprung a leak in one of the air con pipes that runs down the offside (UK drivers side) of the car. Looks like many many miles of being peppered with stones has left its mark!
I was wondering, before I splash some cash, if someone can just confirm my shopping list, only one line leaking but will replace both, from the PET diagram attached I think i need:
6 - intake pipe
10 - refridgerant line
19 - O ring x 2 + 2 extra for the next ones in the line either end
18 - O ring x 2
23 - combination screw x 4
Anything else I should replace whilst there?
Appreciate the help - only want to do one order with Porsche so I can the work done quickly at my local garage and recharged again
Regards
Chris
6 is the correct one. I wouldn't bother replacing the other one (10) as this seldom goes. The issue with this pipe is it attravcts a lot of moisture due to being the 'cold' line. Over time, this corrodes the aluminium and eventually starts to perforate it. Not the case with part 10. Better spending your money on replacing the drier whilst it's degassed, they're only about £15 for an after-market one.
Here's one:

Yes thank you, its had dye put in the system and really clear which one it is - no other leaks found
I dont mind a few parts giving up with age, she is 22 years old and travelled 110k miles so to be expected!
I know people have had problems splitting the joint between 6 and 25, so you may need 25 too, but see how it goes.
O rings can be bought from places like polymax (you need HNBR material for AC). They have a minimum order of 20 or something, but it often works out cheaper than one or two from Porsche/D911.
