I need a Air Con pump for my 2800cs. The old pump is talking to me so I think its on its last legs. Ill look on ebay but felt one of you may have one to sell.

Yours is a York?

In my opinion, unless you are striving for 100 point concours originality, you should use this as an opportunity to swap the York for a Sanden rotary compressor. The rotaries are lighter, quieter, and more efficient. Plus you can buy them new - someone's used York may be no better than your existing compressor.

The parts needed for this conversion have been discussed here on e9coupe.com. You'll need a bracket from a later BMW.

The old style compressors can make a lot of noise and vibrate a lot and that can be normal function.
You may want to wait til it actually quits, and that could be a while.

Even when they are working they are substandard to a rotary.

Where in Southern California are you? I have a pump which was given to me and is in known working condition, just ask Mr. Mackro. It is yours if you are willing to pick it up in Costa Mesa or Newport Beach. 949-887- tw0 Zero thr33 Seven.
