This is a link to my VIN on RealOEM. I believe the part you are looking for will be in this section. Plug the last 7 of your vin into the serial number box and go to this page for your car. Can get the part number then order it from the dealer.

Unless you have an evacuation system and a vacuum pump you might want to consider professional help.

yeah..he's right. AC stuff is hard to fix unless you have the expensive equipment to do it right--I had a leak on another car on a LP hose which was not hard to change in itself, but the evacuation part I could not do. The part ended up being 80$ and the whole job was $150.

I was planning to fix the hose myself and then get it evacuated and recharged from the shop.
