Your options will be to rebuild the front of the compressor or buy a new compressor. Either way they will have to scrap it down to see the damage.

Best bet to have trapstar on alert if you need the compressor so you could link with him as the compressor done out.

time for you to go spam the "OTHER Manufacture Forum" since Kia doh have one of their own

I need an AC compressor please anyone. Need it like yesterday. ASAP!!

I am getting a heavy rattling noise from the compressor. Mechanic check it and confirmed it's coming from the compressor.

Just following up here. I no longer have this issue. Trinicool in Charlieville supplied the new compressor and installed on spot. Really good service. Trinicool is a power seller. I saw his ad in the classifieds and he tell me come and check him. I went and he had everything. I recommend him to anyone having AC problems.

OEM compressor or substitute?

What cost?

Hey guys, anyone here ever installed a double din stereo system in their lancer? I'm thinking about buying a full dashboard with the 2 din pocket and electronic a/c controls? Should i expect any problems or complications?

The attachment 1.jpg is no longer available

I did the conversion in this car. But this car had electronic a/c controls.
I brought down the silver double din trim face plate. Paid $800. (With Shipping included)
The electronic a/c knobs for the relocation at the bottom came off an Evo8. Got it in the bamboo. Paid $500.
I had to use a different trim for the a/c vents to line up. That's why I went with the wood-grain. Paid $300.
The reason I did not buy a complete dashboard is cost '$3000'. For a couple of plastic pieces. Any they were not giving everything with that used dashboard.

Problems: Clock and hazard stock harness was short. Had to buy also and extend.
A/C vents in wood-grain did not line up in the back of dashboard. A/C person
fabricated the plastic to make it work.

For the manual a/c control, just relocated to the bottom and get the double din trim face plate.

PM me if you need any help.

ZeroOne, wagonrunner, idlemind and everybody else, parts, labour and service cost me $2750 with three months warranty. If it is OEM, I do not know. I just know it was BNIB. Saw it come out the plastic and box.

At that point I just wanted my stuff fixed. It was very embarrassing driving with AC off and this extremely loud 'sounding like d car will fall apart or blow up' noise taking precedence on the roads.

[idlemind]

Cool. About the same price KingKool would've charged.

Don't worry man, when my compressor was shelling out I pulled over and called a tow truck.
Wasn't risking anything seizing up in the compressor to damage the belt and affecting the steering or crank.
Getting that sorted out was urgent..trust me.

[wagonrunner]

a shelled compressor damages power steering and crank?
the clutch only engages with the AC turned on so leave it off, and drive as normal.
BH, i hear yuh on the urgency and cost. Thanks. A bit more expensive than my alternative in south. ~$1700 for coil and regas.

[BrotherHood]

Not a bad price at all. Everything in south cheaper yes.

The compressor bearing is always engaged even when AC is off as it is on the same belt for the crankshaft and power steering. However, when u turn on d ac, d clutch engages d compressor to come on. I think daz how it works. Correct me if I am wrong.

It was a very frightening drive to d AC man.

Lol ask Mishi about the drama of a failed Mitsu compressor and the damages it can cause to things other than just the AC.

[wagonrunner]

In my experience the pulley can always spin, until the field coil engages the clutch which rotates the compressor.

not mitsu. dont have that FSM. yet.

What is needed to convert manual ac controls to auto/electronic?

About the key, you might have to get one made/cut. You have a spare, right?

[nissan4life]

You can just get a spear key cut or check online and order a new key shell with blank key and have the locksmith cut out new key for you.
You ll have to remove the transponder/chip from old key into new one

I wont even comment on the subway gyal. wait til carnival and u drunk to hav a excuse to talk to ooglie gyal nah icefox

[idlemind]

I fit mine into one of these.
Had to do some butchering but it look bess and was functional.

[mitsu_chick941]

need some advice

when driving and i reach around 100-120, i am getting a vibration.....i feel it in the steering and peddles.

I changed some bushings, rubbers and belts recently....aligned tyres etc.

mind you if i cross 120 into 140 i don't feel it.


Any idea what it is?

[Dave]

Rim issue or axle would be my guess given what u changed

[nissan4life]

mitsu chick as dave said.
Speed balance your both front rims and see if that makes a difference first

[mitsu_chick941]

thanks guys

[EXODUS]

^^^shudda buy ah kia

i get a lil whimmy when i reach 100km as well but it's just my rims as the amt of potholes / embankments i gone thru...

time for

[JUS4SHO]

If u have aftermarket wheels chances are they are spinning eccentric instead off concentric to solve this u will need hub centering rings.
