ok thanks!

thanks for reply, so is my only option to but a new compressor?

hi everyone, with summer on the way i finally decided to get my a/c compressor fixed, is there a repair kit for my compressor (SANDEN 1K0 820 859 F) having trouble finding some sort of refurb kit for it? every time i think i have found something it turns out that its from another make and not a sanden there are plenty of second hand compressors for sale the same as mine but knowing my luck if i get a used one fitted it would pack up within a week lol. so i thought of going down the route of getting the one on my car repaired should work out a bit cheaper for me fingers crossed, i am presuming it will need gas out and gas back in ? i have no idea of the price for that + the compressor removed and re fit + refurb, has anyone had this done and could give me some idea of cost? cheers kev!

cheers buddy!

did you get to the bottom of the problem you where having with your blower motor? i am getting the same problem cheers kev

i couldn't tell you buddy i just know it made a growly/jangly type nose when the engine was running but couldn't tell where exactly it was coming from, then found if i turned the are con on it stopped making the nose. then after some time the air con stopped working and then i realised that there was no tiny increase in the rpm when sat just ticking over, when it was working there was always i small increase on the rpm counter when you switch the air con on at idle. cheers kev

so can you get air con compressors repaired? at what sort of cost ? obviously the pump would need sending off to where they repaired them if they can be repaired but would that leave the car unusable until the pump was re fitted ? cheers kev

hi to everyone, hope you all had a good Christmas & new year, i have a 1013 face lift superb and the ac compressor stopped working it first stated rattling/jangling when it wasn't switched on but went quiet when i switched the aircon on so i was thinking pully bearing? didn't bother me that much as weather was getting colder but i hate things not right on my cars so priced a new compressor good job i was sitting down when i made the phone call lol, anyway i have found a second hand one with the same make and the same part number. but this used one is coming off a (2007 vw touran) with this being the same make and part number would it have the same fitting points on it? cheers kev

thanks very much for your help they will do nicely cheers kev

can anyone recommend a make of gas struts for the rear of my estate car ? i have had a look at them and cant see a make , just a load of numbers if anyone can make any sense out of them? 3t9 827 550 a 01s 539672 0560n230/13a32 thanks kev

thanks lads!

dose anyone know the part number and make for the (air con pump/compressor) on my 2013 superb 2.0 170bhp dsg 4x4 ? thanks!

sorry for late reply i was just running the car as the pump was growling a little as if the bearings where on the way out but didn't affect the running of the car in anyway and with not using the a/c at the time just left it for a while. guess what we are now getting some hot weather and i have no a/c lol so i need to get it sorted. is there a way of getting the original part number and make for the a/c pump without getting the pump taken off as the car would be stuck at the garage until i could get a new pump delivered ? can anyone tell me if it is a good idea to get the original pump re conditioned and get that re fitted or find a new replacement ? i take it is probably not a good idea to get a second hand one as you wouldn't know how much life that pump would have and could let you down at any time? cheers kev!

just had a thought can they be reconditioned? and would that be a better way to go? that way it would still be the original part? if you can get them reconditioned any idea of cost? cheers kev!

i cant find anything on the site, could anyone tell me the part number and make for a replacement air conditioning compressor for my (63plate superb 2.0 tdi 4x4 170bhp 6speed dsg) ? or a link to a site where i can find original part numbers please? cheers kev!
