I have just gone through 4, yes four compressors, condensor and belts on a 2000 grand vitara. I was told finally today the reason the compressors contine to squeal with each one is that the system has rust fragments in it from ( running it dry ?)and locking up the compressor ie.... the squeal, the belts have also been replaced and to No surprise the whole thing needs to be replaced at a tune of $2, 500 The company that we took it to spoke with the manufactor of the compressors and stated the only way to relieve the SQUEAL was to replace the whole airconditioning system due to the fragments entering the whole system. Hope this helps

How can you tell when your air compressor is gone out in your car?

You can tell your car's air compressor is failing if you notice a lack of cold air from the air conditioning system, unusual noises like grinding or squealing, or if the air conditioning system cycles on and off frequently. Additionally, if you see any visible leaks of refrigerant around the compressor, it may indicate a failure. Dashboard warning lights related to the AC system may also appear. If you suspect an issue, it's best to have it checked by a professional.
