Air Conditioning Compressor: 4 1/2 years old , used for 50,000km. Sanden SD7 fits Espace III and some other renault models too.
This was fitted to my car in 2005 under garantee after the first one developed a slight noise from the clutch.
I've replaced the compressor with a new one so the old one is for sale.
The compressor and A/C system functioned just fine however it leaked oil out of the main shaft bearing. This shows up as fluid on the clutch pully.
I decided to replace it incase it got low on oil and filled the A/C system with shrapnel.
If someone can replace the bearing or bearing seal then the compressor should be Ok for a few more years yet. I've read that it is possible.
price: very low
