A couple of months ago I was changing out my water pump on my 2008 Mini S when I guess that I accidentially pinched the air conditioner line. I need the AC line that goes from the back of the motor to the splice near the passenger side wheel. Anyone know the part number or the best place to order this part?

 

Follow the listing to where it shows a diagram and part number listing. If nobody in the vendor directory has it you can get it from your nearest MINI dealership.

Thanks for the link, tried to find an online parts catalog for a long time.
Didn't mean to highjack your thread.

 

No hijack. The forum is an open 'forum' for information, help, surprises and disappointments and perhaps a few other things. Where do you suppose the information you just got that I had to pass on came from?

 

Probably good at this point to replace your receiver / dryer cartridge as the system has been open for a bit. Getting that out is a bugger. On mine they had this low clearance c-clip.

 

If you can not find it, remove the old broken line and take it to a shop that make hydraulic hoses such as hydra air, h&m hydraulic, im sure they can make any type of hoses and alluminum hose etc.. etc.

 

Good point, hadn't thought of that. I double dog guarantee you any farm implement shop can build a hose in a heartbeat. Been there - done that many years ago in my near misspent youth out in the old North 40.
