Hi all, my A/C compressor is leaking and i was wondering if anybody has a good idea about how to resolve it.
I have 3 options at the moment:
 
1. Get a new non-supercharged compressor and swap over the bits
2. Get somebody to rebuild the one i have
3. Source a used supercharged one that works
 
I personally think no.2 is the way to go but I'm open for suggestions

Sorry couldn't resist but suggesting option No.4: Sell me the car, and I'll take care of it 
Would love a supercharged AW11 as a daily    Any photos by the way?

Number 3. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/AW11-AC-compressor-4agze-/131655137975?hash=item1ea741fab7:g:1xIAAOSwI-BWQddb
 
You probably already know that they are unique compared to the normal 4age ones as they have a rotation sensor in them. I'd buy that used one for spares or just to use.
 

Sure Lucas ;) 
I will make a showroom page when I've taken photos and fixed this issue.
Its the white/silver 2 tone paint as well!!!
 
Thanks Mrskylighter, i will look into that :) I'm not to keen on used parts that have unknown history but its on the table

You can use a a/c compressor from the 4age, just need to change over pulley assy and valve body.  I have done this myself and it worked fine.  I replaced all the o-rings with new ones to suit the new gas while at it (plus every other o-ring in the entire system).

thanks feral for the info
 
i have found a brand new supercharged one that was sitting on a shelf here in Adelaide and will be going in next week. Very fortunate to find it but the hip pocket will be a little lighter for a while...

brand new? wow...  2 minute noodles for you! haha
 
good stuff.   i've removed all my ac gear.  but hanging onto it 'just in case'...

bahaha 'just in case'
 
yeh im not looking at 'tracking' this car so weight isn't an issue with the system. i just wanna be cool driving around the hills in it :)

oh i'm sure my next summer trip across oz i wish i had it still. haha
