I need to replace the thermal module (MXM 60.ARL07.004) on my Acer Aspire 7530G. The laptop is less than 3 years old. I have looked everywhere but it seems this spare part is not available for purchase anywhere. End of life perhaps?
Does anyone know where I can find this part - new or used?
How can Acer stop producing an essential part for such a relatively new computer? Is it common for Acer to be bad at providing spare parts?
Grateful for help.

What's a thermal module? Are you talking about the video card or heatsink?
-
It's available at least in Germany and Poland.
Worst case scenario- you can try to order there. -

It says 2 weeks delivery on many sales sites in Germany, but it's not true, they order it from Acer, and Acer themselves are out of stock, except for some thermal modules they have saved for warranty errands, but they don't sell any otherwise.
Am I just supposed to throw away a computer that is not even 3 years old because I can't get any spare parts?
Very grateful for any help. -
That one is Polish.
It costs some ~40€ -
I'll report back and say how it went.
