Been having problems with the a/c a few yrs now and only got by last summer by adding refergirant a few times. Finally got some extra $ to spend so decided to have it fixed. Took it to same shop that last yr fixed a/c on my 95 S-10 and 98 Explorer. Got a call from the shop saying the drier, I believe, is obsololete from Ford and the newer driers only have a partial hose, so I'm looking at even more expense so the newer style drier will work on my 11 yr old a/c.
Classic case of the SC costing more than my other vehicles to repair.
Last year same shop repaired a/c's on both my other vehicles.
95 Chevy S-10(including replacing compressor) $800
98 Explorer $1000
94 T-bird SC, originally quoted $1200(believe about half of that is labor for dash removal), now up to $1500
Cost of having reliable a/c in a TX SC: PRICELESS
Just wondering if anyone else ran into this.
