My compressor is making a nasty noise when ac is on. Sounds like a machine gun. AC blows cold air, and everything sounds fine with ac off. I took off the belt and was able to turn compressor but it feels stiff.
I would attempt to replace it, but I don't feel capable of flushing system. Plus, I also read that holes in condenser are so small that it is better to replace it at same time as compressor.
If I replace a working compressor that is making noise, is it most likely also starting to break down and add debris to system? And is it necessary to replace condenser too?
I have the V8. Thanks
Dave
