Coolant leak due to low side Schrader valve 2013 Elantra GLS

[TCW]

Hi group,

Last year in May I got my coolant filled at dealer due to having leaked
out. They diagnosed it to be the low side schrader valve. The invoice
stated they tightened the valve and the leak stopped but this year I
have no A/C coolant. I'm having the hardest time finding the part number
of these valves as I'd like to replace both of them with OEM parts.
Anyone know what the part numbers are for both high and low end sides?

will work and they cost all of $6. At 71k, should I just got for these
or stick to OEM?

Thanks for any tips.

The dealer should have replaced the valve. It loosened for a reason and
probably would again. If the Auto Zone valve fits is is probably the
same quality as the OEM. May even be the same.

Thanks for the reply Ed. I wish they did fix it but they apparently
didn't. I'm sure it's a $1 part but you know, why really fix the problem
part when they can charge $100 for a recharge and not fix the real issue
hoping you'll just come back again? I doubt they really tightened it
anyhow. I bought the $6 repair kit and I'll replace the part myself.
It's probably the o-ring anyway and not a matter of how tightly it was
installed. I have a local shop charging $54 for a recharge so it's not
so big a deal if the repair part doesn't fix it.
