Just had knee surgery on thursday, had a sever case of cabin fever so went with my husband to get him a new cell phone. After two hours we scored, and were getting ready to leave to hang out with friends when he turned the key and teh disaster began.
All the sudden, there was all of this white smoke everywhere. It took us a minute to realize it was coming from us. We turned the truck off. I thought blown head gasket, he thought blown radiator hose.
Turns out it was something near the A/C compressor. He traced the leak and could feel it coming out near the lower of two fittings (possibly the return line??).
Can anyone give me any insight as to what might have happened?
I just got it back from the dealer (stopped by on my way home form work). They replaced the A/C manifold 7 weeks ago, and they told me today that the compressor failed because it has a hole rusted in it. Of course no one else can see the hole.
There's compressor oil everywhere and no A/C function at all.
any ideas or insight would be well appreciated.
thanks!!
