Anyone know how easy it is to replace one of these - DIY job, or dealer job?

Thanks, Chris

Which one, a temp sensor or an evaporator.

Evaporator is in the heater box and will need the dash out to change it.

Hmm according to ETKA it's the "Temperature sensor evaporator".... do you think that ties in with this VAG-COM message:

Address 8 One fault found 00818 sensor for evaporater outlet temp (G263)

Other temperature sensor mentioned is the "Temperature sensor passenger compartment ventilation footwell vent" but that doesn't seem to have anything to do with the evaporator :confused:

Each part costs in the region of 16 quid so I obviously don't want to get too badly stung for labour! I'm going to be remove the horrible beige bottom half of the dash anyway to replace it with my new grey bits - can I get to the evaporator from there if I need to?

Thanks, Chris

why not ask a dealer for a quote?

Then, when you pick yourself up from the floor, ask him to explain how he arrived at such a ridiculous figure.

Was hoping to find out what it involves from people I trust first

Chris

afaik it's on the right hand side of the heater box above where your left foot would sit is quite awkward to get too

Hmmmmmmm thanks K, so how many hours labour do you reckon it would be to change?
