Just had my disco 2 regassed the fan is running when started but the compressor isn’t kicking in ..the condenser fan was coming on b4 the regass I was told it could have over heated in the past now would the ECU turn the air con off as well ..driving me nuts help !!
 
The compressor is most probably seized and broke the clutch, if you can't turn the middle of the pulley with your hand that's it....happened to me, the engine ECU doesnt disable the aircon
 
Daft question plse, can these ever be taken apart and repaired or rebuild kits available

See denso are around £300

Many Thks
 
Just a warning... my compressor died soon after a regas and the general consensus was that the shop where it was done used chinese stuff which kills the compressors, happened to other 3 fellows in less than 1 week... maybe not such problem in UK but better go to reputabe shops rather than some suspect indies.
 
Loads of information on the www for rebuilding a c compressors

Hi buddy

Funny enough the only info I found was replacing the front clutch , unless that’s all ur able to do without specialist equipment

Unless there on tube

Thks again
 
Just checked the clutch cover has gone

I could turn the shaft

I’ve bought a second hand one off eBay for £40
My clutch fell off, was found jamming the steering column[/QUO

mines gone ! Looks like it’s been gone b4 I bought the car two years ago ..strangely it looks like it’s sporting a new rad ? Btw did the air con work when you put the clutch cover back on ?
 
I also got one off ebay back in the day when things were cheap! And it has worked fine ever since! And I think I also paid £40! So maybe not so cheap, or your IS cheap!
Crossed fingers for you.
