    Hi,

    I'm assuming that the A/C dryer isn't unique to this model, or even Ferrari, so does anyone have any part number cross-references, or maybe another (cheaper) vehicle it was used on?

    Thank you,
    Paul

    Get a supplier catalogue and go through the pictures. For my QV, OEM was $275, but identical to one from Caterpillar, of all places, for $20. They all do the same thing, it's the shape and inlet/outlet orientation that matters.

    There is a cross reference thread for 308 Parts. I recall the information was there.

    I've tried trawling through that thread but couldn't find anything. However, it would have been easy to miss it amongst all of the part numbers listed.

    I think I've found one at a local auto aircon supplier for less than £20. :)

    Here is the cross reference thread.

    http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/140321222-post236.html

    As stated, there are two tabs that need to be cut off. I have this on my 78 308 GTS and it fits and works fine.

    I also had these numbers as a cross reference, however, I cannot verify the accuracy other than the Four Seasons 33444, which is the one I used.

    Thank you Joe. I'll have a look and see which one of those is available here in the UK.

    Anybody else having problems using the above cross-ref link? I click on it and it says there's an error.

    In any case, I replaced my drier years ago and got soaked by a local supplier (hundreds of dollars... Grrr). I later discovered that a Ser. III Jaguar XJ-6 drier was identical, save for the mentioned tabs needing to be cut off. < $40.

    Before the new version of Ferrari Chat that link worked. Now error message.

    I wonder how many other links won't work.

    I'm guessing LOTS.

    Thanks Peter. As I work in Coventry, home of Jaguar, I should have no problem sourcing one of those.

    We're in Spain at the moment in the Dino having to make do with opening the windows. :)
