Hey guys,

My Dads VS Commy Aic Died, We looked around and found a second hand one at a wrecker, and it had similar issues to the current one and original one we had in the car. Local spares places and someone wanted to change 1200 for one.

My Dad is a mechanic and managed to pull it apart and found it was the bearing or two seals that appear to be worn. Can the parts for it be bought by itself or can we get a new one with out paying 1200??

Thank you, but can you just buy the bearing or seals for them?

Parts must be available if the AC guys can rebuild it. Try your local engineering supply specialist for bearings and seals.

i just asked a m8 about the bearing and seal for it. He said if you do find the bearing and seal you will need special tools to fit them. These days they are all just replace item from ebay or such not worth the effort to rebuild. His specialty is auto elect/air con, he also said that for the $1200 that would be replacing the whole new system which he said he does for about $900-$1000.
