Hi, can anyone tell me what the part number is for my xc90? Reg y88 MCc

My mechanic told me i had x3 holes in my condenser, so just buy a new one fit it, get it re charged right?

Your help appreciated.

Hi, I am sure you are aware that you have a duplicate post.

I purchased a 'nissens' condenser from eBay and was delighted with quality. I suspect one from Volvo will not be cheap. The nissens has 3 year warranty.

It will depend on year it seems, but suggest you check this out as I did. Incidentally I also purchased a nissens main rad too as my oil cooler had failed.

My indie fitted both and recons the quality on both was excellent

Hope this helps.

I think the easiest thing that you can do is phone the parts department of a Volvo dealership, who can give you availability and price info at the same time. Then you can make a choice as to whether you want the original or an after-market. In my experience, these can be worlds apart on price, about the same, or even cheaper from Volvo - it varies on a part by part basis. At least with the Volvo part, you *know* that you have the right one and the correct quality (and if not, you can return it) so I think it's at least worth asking the question.

BTW yours is a 2006 model.
