my car's air conditioning system is busted...
wala nakong aircon ngayon, good thing malamig ang panahon.
about 2 mths ago i went to an aircon shop,
for a freon refill.
and the repairman told me that the compressor was not functioning well,
it needs to be repaired.
i told the repairman na baka puedeng kargahan na lang ng freon at ibabalik ko na lang sa kanya pag madaling maubos ang freon.
then the man go on with the freon refill...

yesterday hayon!!!, bumigay na ang compressor,
went to my neighboring aircon shop, and told me
that the compressor needs replacement.
hindi na sya makapagpump ng lamig kung baga.
and the compressor produces a noisy harsh sound when the aircon is on,
parang may basag na bakal sa loob ng compressor.

advices from anyone...
where can i find a reputable and reasonably priced car aircon parts...
if possible a "car aircon shop" na dun ko na papagawa yung aircon ng car...
i believe hindi lang compressor papalitan pag binaklas,
baka pati yung drier pa...

tight ang budget kaya hindi ko kinonsider ang casa....

thanks in advance sa mga advices....:thanks:

😮 neuva ecija !!! an layo brad, sayang...

kinakabahan kasi ako dito sa neighbor namin na aircon shop,
madalang ang pasyente este client nya,
kaya 2nd thought ako magpagawa sa kanya.
kung sa manila kasi, the availabilty of the parts is within reach.
kung dito sa neighbor namin, what if another parts need replacement ?
na-unsyame na naman yung work...

mag scout din ako sa banawe,
kaso isa rin kasing kinatatakutan ko yang banawe,
wala kasi akong kilalang aircon shop sa place na yun, although marami choices.

thanks very much V,
wait ko yung denso shop's detail sa edsa pasay ha...
and yes you are right , waiting for boss jayL reply...

:thanks::thanks:

Re: car aircon's compressor needs replacement

Jon, anong brand/model ng kotse mo?

Nakabili ako ng compressor from

Alabang Parts Center
Address: Fabricare Building, 591 102-103, Alabang Zapote Rd., Almanza, Las Pinas, Metro Manila
Telephone: 7721653, 7721656, 7721657, 7721659

Ang price nila for most parts kapareho lang halos sa Banawe. They have a branch/affiliate in Pasay,
pero hindi ko alam ang contact details kasi si misis ang tumatawag dun. Pag wala akong time na dumaan sa Alabang, nagpapadeliver na lang si misis from the Pasay branch.

Tanong mo na lang sa Alabang branch kung saan yung sa Pasay. Or malamang alam ni JayL kung saan yun.

nag-install din ba sila ng compressor or nag service ba sila ng car aircon ?

well anyway, ako na lang pala ang dapat magtanong sa kanila ( kalabisan na ba ) :Neeeedsleeep:

thanks in advance for the great help...:thanks::thanks:.

Re: car aircon's compressor needs replacement

Sir if you're from QC; you might want to check Mang Mario's A/C shop. It's located somewhere near SM North. He has a great reputation among car clubs. Google nyo na lang po exact address and contact number.

If your compressor is noisy, possible na compressor bearing lang. This is replaceable. But kung ayaw na mag-pump, most likely you really need to change your compressor. Change the expansion valve and drier as well, kasi kung nasira na yun internals ng compressor, most likely you have metal shards in your A/C lines as well. If you don't have the budget for a brand new compressor, you can always go the surplus route. There are lots of shops in Banawe where you can get parts, ingat lang sa mga "amuyongs". 😉

Re: car aircon's compressor needs replacement

They only supply the parts. Just like any other shop there are mechanics that offer their services when you buy, but I don't recommend that. Better to have it installed by your trusted mekaniko.

You can also opt for the surplus route as suggested by lite751 (is he related to timber715?) if you want to risk it. Cruven quoted me 7K for a surplus replacement and 17K for brand new, excluding labor. Alabang parts sells the compressor 12K (IIRC) brand new. Bought the brand new one and had Cruven install it.

bulakan ako brad, san jose del monte....
madali lang tsak hanapin yan, since the in laws are from proj.7 near sa sm north din...

compare ko yung new and surplus price...
kung pasok sa budget yung new, dun na ako.

hahaha...yun nga ang kinatatakutan ko sa banawe, mga amuyong :slick:
as experienced from my "numerous" previous old car repair na "
from suspensions, aircon, tinting, etc etc etc...

1st time magkaroon ng problem tong ride ko,
it happens na aircon pa...
maybe poor owners maintenance...:hippie3:

kaya i hope na sa susunod kong car repair ko
happy ang owner...

you are right, the repairman here mention the expansion valves replacement also,
pati yung drier...

:thanks: lite751

Re: car aircon's compressor needs replacement

Good am bro jon,

I can recommend this bro, kaya lang baka medyo malayo na sa iyo, here is the link.

http://www.pinoyhandyman.com/showthread.php?t=1589

Check out mo lang ang AUTO DOCTOR, Under chassy and Aircon specialist, he is also a PHM member and I think of the Tsikot handyman, kapatid din ng Pinoyhandyman.com. Naka pag pagawa na rin ako ng Aircon sa kanila last yea, owned by jalore24.

Anyway since you are coming from Bulacan, maybe the nearest to you is what co-member is suggesting, Mang Mario's A/C Shop near SM north. GOOD LUCK on you search for a reputable A/C shop. :p 🙂 :rolleyes: 😉

oo nga no, ano kaya sya ni master timber ??:soccer:

i'll try to make a call sa alabang parts center ...
wala pa akong kilalang aircon repair shop dito sa amin,
mostly my previous car,
sa banawe ko na pinapagawa.
yun nga lang hindi happy.
yung shop dito sa amin (new sa aircon services),
since may other services sila ino-offer
kaya nag dadalawang isip ako ipagawa sa kanila.

where is Cruven ?

Re: car aircon's compressor needs replacement

Bro jon,

Oks naman service nila, they have guys for mechanical and guys for aircon, habang ginagawa ang car, laging naka tutok si jalore24 making sure everything is in order lalo na kung PHM member pa, libreng softdrinks pa.

I think most if not all of the Mitsubishi group car enthusiasts and the Pajero jeep owners dito sa Rizal area, sya ang kino contact for mechanicals and aircons too. If ever you decide, talk to him first, busisiin mo muna sya. 😀

Re: car aircon's compressor needs replacement

where is Cruven ?

They have several branches.

http://www.cruven.net/locations.html

The one I frequently go to (when I still had the civic) was the Crame branch. Yung Davao ang pinakamalapit sa inyo. Pero kung gusto mong lumayo, meron sa Fairview. Its not guaranteed that all branches have the same quality of service. Kaibiganin mo na lang yung mekaniko, bigyan mo ng balot. 😀
