I found a compressor made by Four Seasons. I think this company largely remanufactures compressors. Their product page looks very good. Anyway, the compressors was listed for Maxima years 89 to 95(1995 V6-2988cc 3.0L F/I Vin VQ30DE). The part number is 57455. The compressors is listed at around $173. That's a good deal, I think. For someone who is dispalced due to hurricane Katrina, I'm trying to nip this A/C compressor problem in the bud before it gets worse and causes more expense.

 

So what do you need help with?
As the title to this thread says

 

yea um... what he said^.

are you asking us if its a good deal? is the place where you got it from good? whats going on

 

Sorry. Yes. I'm basically asking if this is a good deal? I saw this deal on ebay and the compressor comes with a 2 year warranty.

Has anyone used or is anyone currently using a four seasons A/C compressor? I would have bought it ASAP if it was a Hitachi, but I've never heard of the Four Seasons brand. Is it legit. I just sprayed some lubricant on the pulley and bearings to quiet the noise a bit for the time being.

 

Four Seasons are one of the largest rebuilders of a/c compressors. From what I understand, the quality is not always the best. When I bought mine I ended up buying one by Frigette/Frostemp who are also apparently not great. I bought it anyway because it was all I could afford at the time. So far so good after 16 months.

 

I decided to deal with it and buy a new one from Pinnacle Nissan and Infinity for $333 shipped. I don't want to deal with this problem again anytime soon.

 

That one in the pic doesn't even look like the one for our cars. Ours have 4 long bolts that go through the compressor and connects to the block.

 

I looked it up and found out that it's actually for 3rd gen maximas.
