    Hopefully this will include a video of the noise coming from my AC compressor.

    UK 2004 135,000 on the clock. Now what would be the model number? I've seen a few different ones on ebay.

    Is it a relatively simple swap job with a 2nd hand unit? Are there special O rings for the low/high side?

    Thanks for any help
