Air conditioner compressor leaking

2008 Vauxhall Vivaro 2.5 diesel automatic
Car: Vauxhall Vivaro
Year: 2008
Variant: 2.5 diesel automatic
Categories: Leaks & Noises
The air conditioner compressor is leaking in my Vivaro. The mobile air con. repair man I called out said it could seize and cause engine compartment damage. He also said it is not advisable to use the vehicle until the compressor is replaced. He quoted £750 for this. I then phoned Vauxhall who quoted me over £900 just for the compressor, without fitting! Any advice welcome.

Could try the local scrap yards to see if they have one in, cheaper than buying new or a recon unit...
