Hey,hey,hey. Do you really need AC on that old beast. Best buy it and part it out. Or call someone like junqueyardjim or biopete to take it off your hands all in one piece. AC can always be repaired if you need it and want to spend the bucks. Chances are it will need a bunch and then still be only be half there. That is why I think you should tell us where it is so we can get on it and you will not have to worry about AC. On mine, I removed all the AC parts under the hood. I have a new car if I wish to have AC for the 75 days a year when we really appreaciate the feature here in God's Country. On a 240D with original engine you have about 85HP to work with, and AC will pull off 25hp. Doesn't leave you with much, especially when you put that little retard car in 4th gear. Where did you say the car was?
