The poor condenser, sitting in front of everything really gets beat up with the dirt and rocks. I powerwash mine once in a while just to get the dirt out. I gave up trying to straighten out the fins on the lower part, just too many are bent. A used one wouldn't be any better and new costs too much, besides, you would need to evac the system and replace the dryer at the same time.

See, the radiator isn't bad to repl. I wonder why the dealer book times are as much as DIY times? They can put the car on a lift and make it that much faster. But that needs to be posted in the gripe section.
