I am after a air-con compressor for my Y reg 406 hdi 90 as my one is getting noisey.

Can anyone help??

Payment can be by pay-pal cheque etc.

It's noisey because it's low on gas and it's 'scavenging'.

The compressors are pretty tough on the 406 and failures are rare (in my opinion).

what do you mean by noisy? are you sure its not the belt, or the tensioner

the compressor started to whine last year, though the a/c wprked fine. However during the spring, although the a/c would turn on and click no cold air was coming out so i had it regassed - The a/c blows cold now, however the compressor only operates for about a minute and then cuts out. There is also a rumbling noise coming from it which we suspect is the compressor rather than the clutch side of it - it now seems that the compressor is partially seized!!

Def not belt or tensioner as all were replaced along with the crank pulley 30k ago.

i got a compressor here from a d8 i think they should be ther same but im not really sure

its yours if you wanna come and collect it from south wales or send money to cover postage but it is pretty heavy so it may be expensive
