2000 S40 A/C Compressor

Post by shores »

Was just told today that I need a new a/c compressor. How difficult is it to change one out? Was told I would need a new dryer to go along with a new compressor. Is it true on this model you have to just buy a new compressor you can't put in a new clutch?

The clutch is almost as much as the compressor. Is the clutch burnt up or just not engaging? OR????
