Lovely post from yesterday. WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING?

What has changed?

Well, both Dastard and the oldest are sicker than dogs (no offense to dogs). Chest colds and they sound baaaaddd. Ok, good news, I don't have it....YET.

Remember the air conditioning? Well, the diagnosis is that the compressor is going bad. $1500 to replace. OMG. No there is no warranty left on this vehicle except for the computer and catalytic converter AND IT IS STILL HOTTER THAN SIN HERE. Piss and moan, piss and moan.

Whew, I got that out of my system. Yes, this could all be worse, no doubt about it. Just hurdles to be overcome and left behind.  No, I'm not looking for sympathy, just needed to get this off my chest and blow some steam and give a short primal scream.

I"m feeling much better now.

Carry on. I am. REally.

Keep on Go!!

I might suggest you search for the compressor part on your own online. You might find the part to be less than $200 and a shop to install in for way less than the $1500 estimate.

I would suggest going to to junkyard to get the part....but the labor is what is eating you up on this bill. Several years ago one of our cars had this happen and we were able to get the part from the the junkyard and my brother-in-law (who is a genius at this kind of stuff) replaced it for us. Saved us alot of money. Sorry about all this....guess it goes with the saying "When it rains, it pours!" Good luck on everything!
