Some people helped me on the AC front -- I'd like to recap where I'm at and see if anyone has time to help.
03 9-5
Timeline
June 2022
- System refreshed (new compressor, condenser)
Aug 2023
- 1yr later not blowing cold enough
- Indy topped up system
- Next day burning plastic burning smell for a few minutes | AC completely done
Sept 2023
- Took to AC professional he says 350psi (wasnt hot day)
- he tried to get compressor going manually but didnt work
- he said 2nd issue as signal to compressor is not getting it to turn on
- he said pressure switch could be at fault
March 2024
- PS pump went, belt impacted. 3 weeks later, compressor is leaking oil and is disengaged.
At this point, I have to replace the compressor at least,
a) does that mean or likely the system is contaminated with metal (How would I know?)
b) Do I automatically need to replace condenser?
c) Do I automatically need to replace the evaporator?
d) It was mentioned electronic temperature controller failure may have occurred, how would I know and what is that part actually called?
