• Q: How to install an A/C Condenser on 2009 Toyota 4Runner?

  A: You should start cooler condenser installation by tightening 4 bolts on cooler condenser cushion No.1 to 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 47 in-lbf). The installation sequence starts by attaching cooler condenser cushion No. 2 through 4 bolts and a nut then torquing it to 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 47 in-lbf) and follows by screwing in cooler condenser bracket No. 1 with torquing to the same 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 47 in-lbf). The installation process of the air conditioning tube component requires stainless steel bolt torquing to 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 47 in-lbf) after installing the O-ring alongside adding compressor oil (ND-OIL 8 or equivalent) to the O-ring and pipe joint surface. Apply the same installation process to the discharge hose sub-assembly by deleting the vinyl tape then adding compressor oil to a fresh O-ring followed by O-ring installation and security of the sub-assembly to the cooler condenser with a bolt torqued to 5.4 Nm (55 kgf-cm, 47 in-lbf). The operation ends with charging the system following engine warming while checking for refrigerant leakage signs.
