I need to replace my EAS compressor.
It's a Hitachi - even though the car is a MY11.5 (I thought they were AMK from 11).
There's some white writing on the unit, which makes me think it's a replacement from a breaker.
A refurb kit improved it but it's still got issues...

So choices:
Another Hitachi (360 inc VAT) - but are these unreliable?
AMK - expensive and I'll need my local dealer to update the car
Dunlop Chinese Hitachi replacement - under 300 - are these any good?

Any feedback gratefully received!

Any help?

Thanks DrRob.
That's quite helpful if the AMK one is really only £100 more than the Hitachi.

Does anyone know whether the AMK one is genuinely more reliable than the Hitachi?
