Hey what up bro thanks for the video, it helped me change mine ,same story hit 63k and chevy would not fix it since the warranty was extended already, so thats where this video fix helped,, the condencer was 100! The kicker was the refrigerant was R1234Y .... NOTE FOR ANYONE READING! to get chevy to vacuum and recharge this high price refrigerant cost $630! So have the system checked for leaks before 60k! Thanks again you still saved me a bunch!

Thank you for posting this. We have a 2017 Chevrolet Tahoe that we bought new and at 36,600 miles the AC quit working. The dealer said SOL. Long story short our condenser had a small pin hole leak up on the driver side. GM put a piece of duct tape looking material about 6"x6" over that exact spot so they knew there was an issue with it.
@highspeedvehicle5 жыл бұрын
Log into your onstar app and there should be a special coverage for this for your model. Special Coverage 17336 should cover you till 100,000 km or 60,000 miles. I just had mine go and I emailed my dealer and attached pictures of what I saw along with the letter/notice on onstar.
