    Well I've given up! Got it booked in to an air conditioning specialist this afternoon

    Compressor is still not engaging!

    No fault codes. Condensor plate is present and spins freely by hand. Re-gassed. No leaks. G65 sensor changed. Fuses all ok. Econ light goes out when pressed.

    Getting sick of driving round with both front windows open to keep cool!

    Got my wallet at the ready. Arrrggghhhhhhhhhh.........!!!!!!!!!

    Will keep you lot updated when I collect it later on

    Doh!!

    Hmm how does the compressor burn out, it has pistons like a mini engine, so long as there is gas there it should be OK, I'd expect it to get rattly before dieing!!

    Try Autoklima24 for a compressor, in germany, but seems decent, have ordered a new pulley from them this week!

    Not sure how it burns out!! I've owned the car for a couple of months but the air con had not worked for 18 months ( I know the prev owner). All tested, all sensors OK and there is current at the compressor. Assuming internal electrical fault in comp?? Car has 148k on the clock and the prev owner NEVER had the climate control off, until it packed up.

    how do you remove the compressor? I assume that the belt will have to be de-tensioned then presumably you cant run the car until the comoressor is fitted back on? Tony - did you get any pics etc of the change/repair?

    I never got the car repaired. It got written off in an accident (non fault) about a week after I posted the above message
