compressor

Hi, has anyone experience of issues with the Air-conditioning on CLS AMG63s 2015 model? The garage serviced it and refilled the gas as there was no gas, but its still not working. They say that it could be a faulty Compressor and a genuine replacement part is £750.00. Any suggestions appreciated.

Hi all Need to replace the compressor on my 120 vito, catastrophic failure of the pulley bearing and it also leaks gas anyway over the season. My question is has anyone changed one because it looks very difficult to remove from situ. Any advice welcome as to which way it is removed once...
