The dealer that I purchased the car have been outstanding. They are taking a compressor from a new M8C model that has just been delivered (and where the air con is functioning perfectly) and putting that in my vehicle to prevent the car from being garaged for an extended period of time. They are traveling 3h to pick up my car in a covered transporter, then taking it back to the dealership to do the fix. Apparently this is a 6-8h procedure with taking the compressor out of one and into another as it is not that accessible. They then have to bring the car back in the covered transporter and finally get back to the dealership. Service above and beyond! I think it is the right thing to do, but not all dealers would go the extra mile. Clearly a problem with these units in these cars. Wow.
