After getting "wild " prices for replacing the leaking A/C Condensor on daughters 2008 Fiesta 1.4TDCI ,I have been asked to do the job as looking through web it doesnt appear a job beyond me however I do need several bits of advise.

1 )..when I replace the condensor I assume I need to replace both 0 rings that seal the 2 pipes.Are these main dealer only ?
2 )..says 0 rings should be lubricated with PAG 100 oil ,but for the small amount required can only find £15/£20 bottles which I assume is for the mixture with refrigerant.
3 )..can anybody confirm if the Fiesta MK6 has a drier in the system ..found mention of an accumulator but cannot find part..assume this would also need 0 rings and lube to seal them.

When fitted will get recharge done at local place as that will ensure all is sealed up and also help her keep costs to a minimum.
