Got a few, pheww!

Replacement reason is a f**k**g mouse munching through the low pressure
hose coming from the evap down the D-pillar.
Behind the taillight, where the hose makes the 90° turn into horizontal,
it created a leak (hope its nose froze off!).

Unfortunately, rain etc exactly hit that hole and set the compressor
under water: Blocked and crumbled.

Luckily, no (fluid) water anywhere else. So hose repaired, new
compressor, new drier, new expansion valve (old one was greasy when I
installed years ago) and blowing out the system (with Nitrogen).

Compressor, Drier and refilling tomorrow.
