Sadly I doubt it. We're the same. 2009 V50 on its 5th condenser. I've had OEM, NRF and I think the current on is Delphi. None of them last more than 2-3yrs max.

I fitted mesh to the lower grille after the last change in the hope it might make a difference. Only time will tell. Unfortunately I think it's a design issue rather than quality of component and it's part and parcel of owning these cars :-(
