Hi there, new to the forum, my wife has owned a 2000 twice (bought it back a couple of years ago) and I am now completing  rolling restoration, brakes, suspension, wheels, tyres are done.  Paint is next hopefully. I have been working on the ar conditioning system and got it working, but have a leak at the lock or speed sensor on the compressor, amd the 2x lines that run underneath bulkhead.

Does anyone on here actually have a working system, is there such a thing at the age of the cars now, or have parts that have been removed as part of a weight saving activity?

Thanks,

Ian.

Welcome  Ian.
I have a working system - use it or lose it (and I don't mean as part of a weight saving 'exercise').

Hi SV-3 thanks for the reply. Glad to hear there is someone with a working system!

2005 model, 65k miles.  Specifically bought an aircon model in October 2019.  It worked but wasn't "cold cold".  Had it regassed May 2020, been lovely ever since.

Mine worked a treat.
Took the compressor out to save weight  O:-)
