Default Air Con Concerns!

Its an early ZT190, its done 67k, its Solar Red, it has some lacquer peel, BUT I LOVE IT!

However, when the aircon is switched on I can hear whirring etc from the engine bay. As it stops when I press the ECON button I am assuming it is the aircon pump, and because I can hear it whirring the pump must be activating/spinning. It certainly doesn't chuck out the cold air I am used to.

So do I just get the aircon re-gassed and "re-oiled", or am I looking at a replacement aircon pump; and if so, has anybody used one of the NISSEN pumps advertised on Evil-Bay (they are about £100-£125 cheaper than the DENSO versions)?

Why are these things so expensive to resolve on cars worth the same price as the parts?

Cheers, Muttley
