Aircon

I've just replaced both aircon condensers becase they were leaking, i had the system checked for leaks before the re-gas & it was fine. So once the system was full i switched on the aircon & blue smoke started pouring from the engine! i switched the car off & removed both engine access panels. I started the

car again without the aircon on, no smoke, when i switched it on the engine started smoking again. The compressor was engaging fine & not sticking but a seal had gone on the back of it allowing the oil in the aircon system to drip onto the manifold causing the smoke.

So i replaced the compressor, had it re-gassed but still no cold air but when the aircon is on the pully is stopping & starting making a grinding noise but running freely when the aircon is off.

Also should both fans run when the aircon is switched on?

Can anybody help with this problem please.
