Thread: 95 D1 V8 - air con compressor - bearing or whole unit

Normally a bearing should fix this, however much depends on the additional wear on the shaft that a 'crook' bearing can cause.

The actual bearing replacement is cheap and easy, so take that option first and just hope that the bearing 'slap' hasnt caused too much wear on the other parts.

They are normally quite resilient AC compressors.

$20 should see you for a new bearing at a bearing place.
I think incisor has a post some where on bearing replacement.
An easy job.
