The ML has been into my indy today to have a look at the EML/CEL, transpires it was relating to the adblue heater. Whilst it was there, my Mrs mentioned to him there seemed to be quite a loud 'whurring' noise coming from the drivers side wheel area. After completing the software update relating to the adblue heater, although he didn't have time (apologised) to have an in depth look into the noise, he agreed it was noisey and this is where the air compressor is housed (for some reason I thought it was in the boot on the ML) and it is a sign it is on its way out.
The car does not sink at any time and prior to it going back to have it diagnosed properly and check for leaks does this sound about right, ie compressors getting louder as they are on their way out. It seems to run when the car is off for longer than it used to aswell, which I thought was indicative of a leak.
It would appear the compressor is made by AMK? But would an alternative suffice? Any recommendations for a replacement unit?
