well i determined its my ac clutch coil on my 2006 tsx any advice or tips before i swap it out with a reman" one anyone no how much and what type of oil goes back into the compressor thanks

 

In principle it should be possible to replace clutch coil w/o discharging the system. you will likely need to remove alternator, maybe pax side cooling fan for access and dismount the compressor to allow access to remove clutch plate and coil.

I would suggest purchasing an Acura Shop Manual. Check ebay for listings. Although manual does not address clutch replacement "in place".

I believe there was a post from someone who accessed the clutch plate to remove a shim. Use search to find the post.

good luck

 

i just heard they're nightmares to just change the coil and for the same price ive found a compressor

 

You need to recover refrigerant to remove compressor.

If you don't plan to charge the system yourself, an auto ac shop should recover the refrigerant and charge for a flat fee. Be sure to add some PAG to replace that lost by discharging and removing compressor, perhaps 2-3 oz.

Replace orings on compressor connections.

good luck
