AC Compressor Replacement
* Parts: $200-$1,000
* Labor: $150-$300
Serpentine Belt Replacement
* Parts: $20-$50
* Labor: $50-$100
Total Cost
The total cost to replace an AC compressor and serpentine belt can range from $270 to $1,350.
Additional Considerations
* If your AC compressor has failed, you may also need to replace other components of the AC system, such as the condenser, evaporator, or expansion valve. This can increase the total cost of the repair.
* Some vehicles have multiple serpentine belts, so the labor cost may be higher if more than one belt needs to be replaced.
* If you are unable to perform the repair yourself, you will need to factor in the cost of labor from a mechanic or auto repair shop.
Recommendation
If you are experiencing problems with your AC system, it is best to have it diagnosed by a qualified mechanic to determine the exact cause of the problem and get an accurate estimate of the cost of repair.
