Difference between ac compressors - help
Hello.
Car is an 04 UK Impreza sti.
My ac compressor failed. I ordered one from a parts company but the one that turned up is model number 73111fe030.
The one that was on the car was a 040 at the end.
The compressors have a different technical difference on the label but more crucially they are a) different sizes and b) different mounts.
The 030 has 3 holes, the 040 has four holes.
Google says they're both for the Impreza but as I'm out in spain its hard to get parts. Does it require a different mounting adapter bracket or do the holes line up and one is left blank? I'm not a mechanic.
Any help would be appreciated as Google just trys to sell you them.
