AC compressor bearing replacement

[TheKurd]

Hi folks :)

First of all let me thank you all for the contribution you are giving on this forum. I have managed to fix the turbo on my toyota by going through this forum and members solution for power loss :)

Now i have second issue i want to try to fix.

AC rattling noise

Whenever the AC is turned off, the car makes a rattling noise. If i turn the AC on, the rattling noise disappears.

After reading on this site and checking some youtube videos, i have decided to go ahead and try to replace the bearing that is inside the compressor clutch area as it seems the noise is coming from there.

My question is: Do any of you guys know which dimensions/type or link to a bearing that will fit for my Toyota Avensis 2004 2.0 Diesel? I find many online but i am not sure which one will fit for my toyota.

Thank you all for the help :)

Local auto electricians who rebuild say alternators may carry a range of suitable bearings in stock. They may be able to keep you right.
