My compressor went out like 4-5 years ago, it lasted since the car was new in 1998, so it lasted 7 years or so. I had a decision to make. Spend $800 at the dealership for a new compressor with a lifetime parts and labor warranty....or take my chances with cheaper alternatives with 90-day warranties or no warranty at all at a/c shops that can go out of business any day.

I'll never pay a penny for another compressor again (parts or labor) and it'll be a factory part when it does fail. A good, piece of mind decision.

Some things are just better done at the dealer...not many...but certainly this one.
