I would greatly appreciate any advice or comments you may give: I took my Westfalia into the Volkswagen dealership for an A/C check. The head mechanic had difficulty in finding any leak, so he put some dye in the refridgerant and checked again. He replaced a small hose connector and recharged the system. He then said that the compressor was running "loud" (ie. squeals more than it should and has some vibration), and should be replaced soon. Has anyone else had this problem (or ideas/comments)? Shouldn't the compressor make a bit of noise? Should I wait until the compressor fails? Also another question: my Westfalia has a Limited Edition plaque on each of the front doors. Was there a Wolfsburg Limited Edition Westfalia produced or was my vehicle an aftermarket conversion of a Vanagon Limited Edition? Thanks in advance, Paul Banks '89 Westfalia
