BMW F30 335i N55 busted AC clutch compressor

chejose · 03-10-2021, 07:38 PM

hi all,

Hoping someone on the forums might be able to help. My 2013 BMW is out of warranty and the AC clutch has finally gone. BMW want to charge me $4000 for the part alone. I should mention i'm in Sydney Australia, but I wouldn't rule out even buying the part from an overseas parts website.

I'm hoping someone else in this forum may have some information where i might be able to source a cheaper option?

I wanted to try the European wreckers ect, but though i might asked here first if there is a place which might sell this part instead? I'm selling the car at he end of the year, so don't want to spend thousands fixing it. Would appreciate any guidance.

Contact them with your VIN year/model etc to see if they can help. They offer a lifetime warranty on ANYTHING they sell.
