A quick bit of research indicates BMW OEMs their AC parts (which makes sense as there is no sense to try and build that yourself in today's world). I also have to assume that for the 8-series they are universal components or otherwise BMW needs a lesson in volume manufacturing. Assuming the lack of lesson needed I'm guessing there was a bad "batch" of compressors, etc. that went into a series of builds. Do you have the build dates for your original M8 vs the new one that still needed the swap out?
