he asked me what to change in addition to the comp. in a 09 altima... I told him the hoses, and the condenser... and flush it, and the OT, and fresh oil, and a fresh charge of refrigerant... a whole 1.1lbs of 134... wow. 5 oz pag oil, I wonder if I'll get reimbursed for the refrigerant, the reclaim, the evacuation, or the time spent...
oh, I discovered what happens to a kubota tractor when it's driven with no water in the cooling system... really cool sparks shoot out of the muffler...
Good luck in all this, it's partly what i went through when I had to move out 6 cars at a loss...
If you come across a W123 240D instrumewnt cluster, let me know by PM what you would want. It's a quick pull out, as you know, and I'm too far away to do it myself.

Take your time and PM me in a week, if you want, no rush.
Thanks
