Life span of compressor for 10 yrs is consider very good.
I've never seen any condenser block cases so far.
It could be probably your compressor fail and I believe you continue run even with kock kock kock sound.
Remember, when there's any leaking or short of refrigerant or not cool, don't turn ON the A/C. It'll harm the compressor in continuous run.
BTW, why they never perform flushing with solvent or expensively using R11/R12 to remove the clog.?
If anyone replace compressor, do ensure the foreman perform flushing on the system line to remove any contamination. At the same time, drier is replace.
As well, request for longer vacumn before they fill up refrigerant. Maybe set it as at least 0.5 hrs.
If you know them very well, request for 2 hrs vacumn shd good enough.
Else, you may likely to visit them again in 2 yrs time frame.
Yup, like that becoz before that intermittent aircon cold and hot. Me gamble try drive from nilai to putrajaya. At putrajaya hot all the way, make visit to aircon shop at sunway. They said didnt confident to flush condenser since it full of oil/sludge, have to change new one.
i see, didnt know that have to vacuum for 2 hours. For me as long they using machine to vacuum/flushing/fill refrigerant good enough ha ha.
Hopefully they know whay they're doing since they air con specialist for my car model
