My friends compressor failed approx after 2 hours runtime. My compressor failed after 6 hours of runtime.
I was very happy with the service of Kingtech Luxemburg and it was solved within a week.
I didn't want to post my findings but after reading the post of Marquisvns, I don't hope the factory makes the wrong conclusion as the "3 Hours runtime and sand issue" could be a factor but it is absolutely not the final conclusion.
