My Compressor's bearing is gone. Loud whining sound coming from my engine bay as if I have a supercharger in my car. Checked with TCM and they confirmed my suspision. Cost would be right under $200 I was told to replace. Parts + labour
Those here replaced yours before in other workshops, how much did it cost you? And where?
TIA

after i chged my belting last year,. there was this irritating grasshopper /cricket sound inside my engine,.. whenever my rpm touches around 1.6 - 1.8k the sound came on,...anything below or beyong tat, nothing. At first it was manageable only until recently,..the sound grew very loud. Went back to the same workshop, they tightened the belt,,but sound cleared for about 30 mins,, after that it came back. Tats y went to Autoaid ( at the same time wanted to renew my CVT fluid ). When checked,,it wasnt just sound, there was also vibration. ( which I kinda grew immune to thinking it was normal )
After chging alternator,... there is still some MINUTE sounds ( similar ) to before but drastically reduced,... can only hear when driving next to a wall,, very slowly and u got to really strain to hear it. Anyways, now the car feels good and sounds good too,...
But anyways, this is my 2cents,... just have the car checked when something doesnt sound rite,.. and always have a 2nd opinion. One thing for certain, the guys at Autoaid are great, very friendly and helpful,... feels good even after spending quite a bit hehehe

for me.... my relatively new batt went dead yesterday.... got Eric @ Amaron to come to save me with new batt as its a Sunday.
He checked the alternator. Its does not give a healthy charge which equates to what some of the guys terms as weak alternator.
Will be heading down to autoaid later, as recommended by bro crusty to change the alternator. Their rate is the cheapest after checking with 5 workshops, including TC (which is also relatively cheap).
Will be trying out the throttle body cleaning as recommended as well.
Aint know abt the service. I will try to feed back tonight. :)
