Reciever drier AC skoda Octavia 05

[Crallen]

How do I remove the Reciever drier on a Skoda Octavia 05? it is in the same piece as the condensor on the right side with a plastic 14 socket on top.

What do I need to do to get it free?

Im assuming it's a mk2 ? If so... Should have 2 Allen key bolts at the bottom and hard to get to. Maybe 5mm or 4mm. Some original condenser's you cannot remove the dryer. A new genuine condenser will come with a new dryer which will be replaceable.

I had my condenser replaced recently, and I was told the receiver/dryer was integrated with it.

Yes its a Mk2, It looks like you cant remove the drier :S, but whats the 14 mm allen on top?

There is more than one kind of dryer/condenser. One integrated, one not.

Looks like mine are the integrated then. I buy a whole new condensor then, compressor and expansion valve then.. and flush the evaporator.

What do I need to remove to change condensor? Do I need to remove front bumber?

Yes it has to come off. Along with headlights and crash bar

Radiator can sort of stay in place remove crash bar pull front panel forward a bit ease condenser out whilst lifting radiator out of locations and pushing back a bit.

Condensor is out of the way now and thx for all help. But I ordered a new condensor and It had no foam rubber around the condensor. Is it neccessary to have it?
