Ac Compressor

brandonh · 03-29-08, 01:16 AM

Just wondering if anyone has replaced the Ac compressor ? did you do it yourself or stealer ? Any good place to buy one ? Ebay has a new non OEM for 200, a few online stores have an OEM for 550, stealer wants a good 800 for installed a new OEM one. I don't think I need an OEM one, a used one or a remanufactured should do it, don't you guys think ?

BTW, mine is 2000 RL w/ 175K miles, and this is the first problem I ever encounter, other than that the car is still run smooth as new. Thanks guys

I got a Remanufactured one when I had the a/c compressor replaced on my Legend.

However, I got mine replaced at a third party shop and not the stealer.

How much did u pay Hnic?My ac doesn't work(just blows air) and I think it might be the compressor.I need it fixed by summer cuz the leather inside my car gets hot as hell!
