How do you fix a car AC evaporator leak?
I’ve been having some issues with my car AC, so I brought it to the mechanic, and they said I had a leak in my evaporator. I’m a little familiar with cars, so I thought if I could take care of it myself I could save some money. How can I fix a car AC evaporator leak?

An AC evaporator leak can be an expensive issue to fix since it isn’t so much a fix as a replacement. So the desire to take this on by yourself is understandable.
Fixing an AC evaporator leak requires extensive knowledge and expensive specialized equipment costing upwards of $400. Not to mention, you’ll need the space to keep the equipment and the precision to use it properly.
Instead of trying to fix it yourself, you should let a professional replace your AC evaporator. The cost of getting your AC evaporator fixed at the mechanic can range between $500 and $700, but you can almost certainly guarantee that it will be done properly.
Although the cost of this repair isn’t small, you can get some help paying for it by shopping for
