Hi All,

I just had my compressor changed (£650) on my 60 plate as my old one failed for some reason and now on a hot day, about 20 outside when I really need the aircon to kick in at max, I get a rattling/grinding noise from the bottom of the engine bay on the driver side and I can also feel drag on the engine. Turn the A/C off and it all goes away.

This only happens during hot days ... when its about 10 outside it works fine. Relay is fine and system is gassed up. The compressor is new one so not expecting part failure on that. Any ideas?

Cheers :grin2:
