Removing compressor
Hi,can anyone confirm it is possible to remove a diesel compressor from below the engine bay without taking out radiator/condenser etc.Have slackened all the bolts but now looking from underneath I am not sure there is enough space to withdraw it past the subframe.Got the inner whee arch off and washer bottle.Before I finally disconnect everything would like confirmation if it can be taken out without anything else or can it be slid out at certain angles?If not I might as well leave it in situ and use it without a/c as it has been degassed while I decide what to do.Rrgards Ry....

The answer is yes but you have to bend down the metal tang on the sub frame, photos below i lowered mine when i did the starter motor back in 2013 hope this helps somewhat

Yes i just lowered it and set it out of the way of the Alternator, i could have removed it if i wanted to but it was not needed.
