I have a 2012 200 Series, model number VDJ200R-GNTEZW. It has done just over 100,000 miles and I've owned it for the past 60,000 miles. I do my own servicing every 5,000 miles but other than occasionally towing a boat, it is a pavement princess. The only 'failures' I've had are both number plate lghts about a year apart.
Recently however the AC hasn't been functioning very well and the other day I got a Climate Control System Error on the info screen. I called out a mobile AC chap and he found one of the AC pipes had a small hole in it and the compressor itself had siezed.
He has given me a price to fix it along with a warning that if the AC circuit has ingested some of the compressor bits, the bill will rise significantly. Unfortunately he seems to be dragging his feet a bit on when he can do it and I'm not sure he wants the hassle of doing it. As a result I thought I'd have a go at changing the physical bits and then getting someone to do the charging / purging etc.
Does anyone have the FSM associated with the removal and replacement of the compressor please?
Many thanks in advance.
