I NEED To replace my AC Compressor and clutch A.S.A.P. Now I don't want some crappy ass AC Delco remaned piece of shit! I would like a new or near new or like new part. So I did some searching and came across this website "http://www.discountacparts.com" I want to buy from them but not so sure that they are on the up and up. So I'm asking you my Acura brothers, if you have had any experience with them or can suggest a better place to buy from. Now please keep in mind that the part I want is $295.00 for a AC Compressor and the Dryer is $45.00. I'm going for next day shipping at $37.00.

Thanks to all who help out!

That is the link to the page with the part I want to buy on it. Its the second one down.

 

I have no experience with that site. I do, however, have questions for you. What are your plans on R&R of the parts? You plan on DIY? Just want to be sure you understand that this involves a bit more than just take of old compressor and dryer unit, throw a new one on. Are you having this done professionally while you supply the parts?

 

Oh hell naw this ain't no DIY project! My friend and mechanic for the last 11 years is doing the work at his job! On the side of coarse but I'll be playing assistant. And what does "R&R of the parts" mean? And where would you buy from?

 

OEM

How sure are you that the part they send is a working one because for $200.00 more and for a remaned part, I want to get this right the first time.




And have you ever heard of the website I posted?

 

I should have posted a pic before, sorry!

 

from my experience with auto parts. most places have a price difference between "new" and "remanned" because of the warranty. most "new parts" only have a 1 yr warranty, while the "remanned" comes with a lifetime warranty. not sure if this would be this way coming from Acura. but i know its that way in most parts stores.

 

I would stick with the oem unit. Also depending on where your located you will have it in 1-2 days with normal ups (i know i was getting all my stuff from them in 1 to 2 days. i live in wisconsin they are located in GA so you may not need the overnight)

 

x2 on OEM. Never know what you'll get on a part like that aftermarket. Denso is plenty good and only $100 more. I am not sure how, if there's a way, to know if that unit is remanned.

 

the acura website says if it is with a (RMD)

 

So this is going to be one of these things where you get what you pay for huh? *sigh*

Well I want whats best for my Acura so Mr.fsttyms1 lend me $200 bucks so I can gets me that part! No but seriously which one should I get from http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org? There were two types.

 

Well I got the compressor installed with the dryer.
