hi guys, im wondering whether changing the oil fluid in car aircon compressor is necessary.

it started off from googling why car is slightly underpower when aircon is turned on, and not during the aircon is off.

some of them pointed out is due to the lubricant in the aircon compressor, and it needed to be lubricated once in a while.

so does changing the lubricant in the aircon compressor really necessary and reduce the friction between the engine and the aircon compressor??

indeed. my car is civic fd 1.8, 1800cc

kinda high mileage, about 240k km.

im not sure if its due to aging engine or what, but the basic maintenance like engine oil and atf has been done each 10k km.
