My 07 Camry Hybrid A/C is out, repair est is 1500, does heater coil also need replacing?

It is a heater "core" not coil. Yes, I would have it replaced while it is apart and I would use ONLY a genuine Toyota part. Using an aftermarket part will have increased chance of it springing a leak and have to be replaced again.

Thank you, I know about as much of core's and coil's as you probably do putting someone to sleep for anesthesia... Toyota's repair costs are prohibitive for me so far....5k to replace the battery, and $2,300 to fix the A/C and heat. The car's not worth that, and I still have payments....oh...the joys of owning old cars....

Isn't new technology wonderful? Especially when it needs major repairs. Best of luck with it.
