My gf was using last few days A/C full speed due heat

Suddenly yesterday a huge hiss coming from engine bay
I looked and my A/C pump is full of UV
I guess I need a A/C pump now
Its not the O rings I renewed those already

Changed shift bushings now and rubber holder.

A lot fabrication because the parts are pressed shut

Fixed the A/C now:

As per workshop manual:

Replace A/C system filter
This filter is not separate for sale
So complete condenser replaced with filter

Also new OEM o rings from Daihatsu

Pump is not OEM. Price is very affordable compared to OEM.

Will keep the OEM and I see I can find a repair kit for it.
