Compressor shot 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Nash on  Sun Apr 28 19:43 CST 2002 [RELATED]


Travellin' on the highway (240SE (92) -Manual- 118,750m) for about 3 hrs ( a distance of about 150 miles , all of a sudden the AC was out. It seems that the front part of compressor was red hot.

Checked with a local mechanic and he said that the compressor was shot and need to be replaced. Paid about 150 for a reconditioned compressor and a new gas container. - the AC is OK now - better than before.

My question is, how long will the recon compressor last. According to the mechanic the compressor should be serviced and the oil replaced annually.

Thanks,

Nash
