1995 4 Cylinder Contour @92,000 miles......My AC kind of sounds like a loud cricket.....EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Best description I can think of.

I am suspecting I need a new compressor and clutch plus a system flush to vacate any debris
that accumulated during failure as I suspect compressor is coming apart.

The Air is cold and constant so far.....Am I on the right track or is it something else?

Should I only buy a FORD replacement or is any auto parts compressor/clutch good?

Anyone know mechanic's time on the replacemant?

Thanks
