a/c compressor
Well, my used a/c compressor failed after one month.
Subaru Canada wants $1700 for a new one. Subaruparts.com lists it for $500+. I have only been able to find refurbished units on line. The garage I use brought in a new after market one which turned out to be cross referenced incorrectly and didn't fit. Does anyone know if compatible unit that fits the SVX?

Re: a/c compressor
The compressor is unique to the SVX - it's variable discharge type.... so it does not cycle under normal operation.
Just bite the bullet. I paid $515 for a brand new OEM compressor with the clutch included. /T |

Re: a/c compressor
Both of my SVXs have been running compressors from here for years:

$285.00 $40.00 shipping to Canada. I've always had good luck with used ones, no failures yet. |

Re: a/c compressor
It's getting closer to spring so O thought I'd tackle my a/c issue again.
The best price I found was a/c parts warehouse which sells reconditioned units. @ $224.00 They they haven't stocked them due to only selling a couple a year. The good news is they will do a rebuild for about $100.00. Sending my old one off to them. Will update when I get it back and installed. http://www.acpartshouse.com/inventor...-ac-compressor
