Air con compressor issue
Air con compressor making an awful whirring and scraping noise seems as if the front plate on the pulley has come lose as its moving around. Any ideas?

Or it's run dry. Sounds like either a regas with lube to try (seriously doubt it'd work) and quieten it or replace the compressor.

If replacing i have a secondhand one for £35 delivered.
