Hi,

Do you mean the expansion valve or the evaporator core?

Let me know.

Hi,

That makes sense. LOL If you look below, I attached the removal and installation directions specific to this vehicle.

Take a look through the pics below and let me know if you have questions.

Take care,

Joe

Just want to make sure I can replace the valve under the hood without removing the dash on the 2006 Pacifica.

Hi,

The oil wouldn't have hurt it. They are basically the same thing. And yes, you can replace the expansion valve from under the hood.

Let me know how things work out for you.

Take care,

Joe
