@@iTzz_NoToRiOuS_b Try activating the compressor using diagnose"Diagnostic tester"at different speeds. Of course, you should always start by measuring the pressure in the AC system."Without a signal , the AC compressor will not start."
It’s more that we don’t have a clear fault code only it’s saying that ac compressor doesn’t respond. Code E70C30. But we get signals on all the 3 cables. Also what u mean with tester ?
We've got our 2017 i3 BEV 94Ah booked in to BMW to have the AC compressor replaced next week and have been quoted GBP £2940 of which the compressor itself is around half of that. They are also replacing the pressure pipe and suction pipe, presumably to reduce risk of any metallic particles remaining in the system. Labour is quoted at 5 hours at £168 per hour. I'm not impressed that the compressor has failed after only 6 years and 72k miles but it is what it is... I was a little bit tempted to replace it myself because I'm a very experienced amateur mechanic, but in this case because I don't have AC equipment to drain, flush and fill the system, I don't really want to spend around £1500 on a compressor only for it to fail again in 6 months because I didn't flush the lines properly. At least with BMW I'll get a 2 year parts warranty on the compressor. For info, the symptom we are seeing with the car is a harsh sounding whirring noise from the back of the car when the AC is engaged. We've owned the car from new and it has always made some noise when AC is activated or when preconditioning the car, but the noise level has changed dramatically and is now very harsh. It's clearly the compressor which has started to fail so we are avoiding using it just now to avoid the risk of further damage.
Thank you for these videos
Спасибо большое за хорошее развернутое видео
Do you also recommend changing the condenser, great video by the way. Thank you.
What were the symptoms of a faulty compressor?
My compressor is out and diagnostic proved it. My symptom was no cold air!
Hello, what kind of gas and oil is added to the compressor?
The tag says 230g of PAG SP A2. and I think it should be R1234yf, not 134a...33cc
Don’t add any oil. Compressor placard shows oil in it. …unless you lose it otherwise
It's all in the video, on the label applied to the compressor.
No need to code the new pump ?
@@iTzz_NoToRiOuS_b You don't need coding, but it's the initial run-in of the AC compressor.
Can the signal wire shortcut a new pump u think?

how much cost new ac?
Was this work done on a filly electric BMW i3 or a hybrid model?
At 0:04 you can see the gaping hole where the REx engine would have been... this is a BEV
@@beforebeforesame Rex or bev
@@flyingyakdeath BEV typically has heat pump components that add to the system refrigerant plumbing... Rex can't have heat pump.
@@beforebefore I’m in US. I haven’t seen a heat pump model here. Maybe they exist and you are correct. I have a 19 Bev S and it does not have a hp.
@@flyingyakdeathI have a 2018 i3s bev with the heat pump
Price for the compressor?
About Dkk 13000 kroner

$700 US for a new BMW compressor????...seems awfully cheap??
@@johnnyzee383 forgot the last zero 😂
Thats better...so in Canadian dollars probably around $2000.00 which is what I expected.
