I know dealers are a rip off and this is no exception. Does anyone know of a reputable repair shop in South Florida (preferably Broward) that can do this? I would do it on my own but I am a little worried. Thank you!

Its always nice to see this as a reminder, but at the same time this has been common knowledge for generations, regardless of the make. I hope you guys don't expect affordable drinks at a strip club. LOL. A little off topic but I just love the look of Blkvip's CL with the brabus wheels, that look and stance never gets old to me. Anyway find a trust worthy independent repair shop, let the little guy earn a living then everyone wins, or at least does a little better.

That pump to block hose is the worst one to replace. It requires vacuuming the A/C system and recharging after because the main A/C line has to come off the A/C pump. The engine has to be raised up, etc. That is a lot in labor, but it is a big job compared to all of the other hoses. Oh, and it is a 2 piece hose so my suggestion would be to replace the whole thing at once as it would suck to have to pay the labor twice.
