Q: Issue is location of Suspension Compressor and ability to change it at my location considering weather. I don't have a garage.
My suspension compressor has been diagnosed as non-working. My issue concerns the location of the compressor (Near Driver's side rear wheel) and a mechanic's ability to change it considering the weather conditions. I don't have a garage; only a carport. Before I schedule service to have a new one installed, I would like some assurance that the compressor can be accessed if a mechanic comes to my location.
My car has 202000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
