A/C Compressor Advice
 

Hello,

My girlfriends 2006 Mini Cooper S a/c compressor went out and I am curious if you can give some advice/point in the direction of the best places to buy the parts.

Firestone quoted the following:

$577 for the compressor
$244 for removal and replacement of compressor
$63 for drier
$51 to remove and replace drier
$122 total to evacuate and recharge the A/C.

The part numbers given at firestone are DS2068 and RD1088LC

I found an a/c compressor on ebay for 228-345 but am curious as to the quality of them. Any advice appreciated. We live in the Miami area if anyone has any recommendations as well.

Thank you

is the ebay one remanufactured ?
