Hello all. I am the proud (so far) co-owner of a 2005 AWD LT Noxy Lady (yes that is her name...the GF loves it) that has a newly fried A/C system. Due to financial restrictions I am contemplating replacing only the compressor and flushing the system. Any thoughts? She has 173K on her and is still strong and versatile.

compressor doesnt kick on? reason i ask is a frequent failure is the mechanism which opens the vents

Nope. The compressor locked up and burned up. We are afraid to drive it because of a mournful wailing sound now coming from under the hood and the belt is getting too much resistance to function correctly. Thank you for the reply
