Its brand new compressor replaced old compressor 3 months ago. I got some rattle sound when I try to drive hills with low speed. When gear changed that sound went off.

Hi Gayan, I carefully listened to the sound, as I suspect its origin near alternator and front side of the engine not a radiator fan. Do you have any idea? Thanks, GL

Thanks Gayan for your reply. I tried but hard to identify seems its came out front side of the engine. I will listen carefully Radiator fan and check and let you know.

Hi Guys, My 141 giving some noise when turning on AC. I am not sure why it is because we replaced V-belt, pulley and belt tensioner six months ago. If you guys have any idea why this rattling nose generating when AC On please share with me. I uploaded engine noise clip and can listen it from following url. http://www.mediafire.com/file/13kn162gjyh6q6e/Engine_Noice_In_Idle_with_AC.mp3/file Note: I replaced AC compressor with brand new one recently. No issues with cooling or any AC related problems Thanks. GL.

Thanks again @trinity Yes it cost too much. I dont know why things are more expensive in here since they are available in online sites like AliExpress for much cheaper price. Even Axio AC compressors are in similar price range in SL (Axio is JDM version so should available plenty of spare parts for Axio) ?. Its good to hear Mitsubishi AC compressors are much cheaper than Toyota ones.

Thanks everyone for your replies and its very helpful to me. I went to the Himara Engineering and Mr Palitha did complete job for 84K. He replaced compressor with brand new compressor (he show me new compressor made by Denso. It may be Thailand one) then replace valve with new one. Didnt change condenser or cooler. At the moment it works fine. Thank you very much @trinity for your great help.

Exactly, in Sri Lanka spare parts are very expensive because this was not a JDM vehicle as lot of people said. When I ask quotation for this job from TL they ask to spent almost 300K for brand new compressor. I replied them I didnt ask for engine replacement.

Thanks buddy for your reply. There are few places I visited said same thing, they can convert it 121 compressor. But they mentioned that, it has to change few things in vehicle if I go for 121 conversion.

I think they ask for condenser replacement for their ease I will ask to check existing condenser and use existing one because new one cost almost 20K

Thanks trinity. I will contact him and asked for more details. Thanks again

They mentioning 80K compressor is brand new Denso one. But there is no way to confirm it is a cheap replica or branded Denso. They asked to change condenser because of my AC compressor starts with some loud noise. They said it is possible to existing compressor inside parts are already broken and it may block my condenser as well. If I want to go for a brand new compressor then they asked to change condenser as well. Is there a way to identify any blocking in the existing condenser?

Thanks for your reply hrm, I check with used compressors but it will cost around 55K to replace both compressor and conductor. Most of people said dont go for used compressors because they cannot guaranteed lifetime of it. Most of AC repairing places said same thing. They said it may work for one or two years or may be one or two months but after 1 week they cannot exchange compressor. However spending more than 100K is troubling me because of current situation.

Hi Guys, Recently my 141 end up with traditional AC compressor issue. When I check in few places, they asking between 90K - 100K to replace compressor (not with Japan original one but brand new only 6 months warranty) and condenser. When I check with Toyota, but those leeches asking 200K only for compressor. I have no idea about price tag for AC compressor. Please share your ideas about that price also if you can give any recommendation for this job near Kohuwala, Kotte, Maharagama, Dehiwala area its really helpful to me. Thanks, GL
