I need to replace the aircon compressor in my 1998 550 Maranello. Is it worth it to get it new from COMPRESSORE V5 FERRARI - MASERATI or will a refurbished one from Ferrari 01 V5 PV6 REMAN | Delphi-Harrison compressor | 164547,015144,15144,204539,170594,0151144/1,6580332 at less than half the price be as good? Thanks.
... another option is https://www.polarbearinc.com/ProductData/Compressors_CO_80332R.htm in case you are in the U.S. They are located in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
I send them out to be rebuilt. Several companies around the country do it and it is quite inexpensive.
Polar Bear rebuilt mine- He was Awesome Very friendly- Did a quick turn-around & perfect job, and even called to talk to the tech who was reinstalling it to confirm nuances of the procedure Highly recommend...
Although I have been to Fort Lauderdale often, I am based in the UK, so I have to concentrate on the options available here. It seems that there is a positive consensus about the reconditioned units. I will then go for one. Thanks.
