    My nearly 4 year old Forester's aircon conked out a few weeks ago. Parang fan na lang. I went to Coolmate in Makati and was told that there's a leak in the evaporator. Had to change it. They said it's common daw for Foresters.

    My evaporator leaked as well a few months ago. Had it replaced at MI since it was already there for some maintenance.

    Wow! How old is your subbie and how much did it cost you?

    My Fozzie is 5 years old and the evaporator was around 20k. You could probably source a cheaper one; I just didn't have the time to go around looking for one.

    Thanks. Based on feedbacks here,- 4 -5 years bumigay ang evaporator. I just reach 1.5 years on the fozzy so may panahon pa mag ipon.
