Peugeot 5008 AC Compressor Replacement

I am inquiries several shop to have my AC fix from Peugeot Service center to AC specialist. All of them indicating the problem with my compressor. The cost to fix ranges from RM2000 - RM5000. Finally, I decide to fix my AC at Millennium Jaya Auto. To make sure the replacement compressor can last longer I also need to service the filter. The filter is located together with the condenser. Unfortunately original 5008 filter is unserviceable. It enclosed inside the condenser. So I need to get my condenser replaced also.

This old compressor & condenser



This the new one



My bill. The cost including solvent flushing + 1-year warranty. I can get it cheaper without warranty and without replacing my condenser.
