[QUOTE="Russie, post: 455179, member: 4537"] after reading some of the postings here in this forum, I am beginning to worry... I think my E36 318 (M43) air cond compressor gonna "konk" soon. Symptoms:- a) when driving, got very low metal chain sound, especially when accelerating (mechanic said its the compressor bearing worn out) b) of late, got sound like a lion roaring in the engine compartment, louder as i accelerate. The sound goes off when i switch off the air cond c) air cond not as cold as b4 d) when switch on air cond, white smokes blow out of the air vent... is it too late to flush the oil in the compressor? Anyone faced and rectified this same problem b4? need some advise before sending in for check up... [/QUOTE]
