@Clan - am I right in that ?
When buying a new compressor you get this :-

IMPORTANT
When replacing the air compressor, the Dryer has to be replaced and the system flushed! Otherwise, the warranty will not be valid!

The cost of a Dryer is less than £50, no idea what's involved in fitting it though.
Still running cold 2 years on. So no issue's or complaints from me.
