I recently replaced my compressor, tx valve and condenser... purchased the parts from www.rockauto.com in the US. Shipping is obviously a bit more expensive but still cheap in comparison to buying locally.
Shipping was very fast too and could be tracked through the FedEx website.
I paid a total of $700au delivered for the parts above.
Just looking at the rockauto site - how did you decide which brands to get? Each component has different brands and I'm not sure where to start. GPD seems the cheapest and has all the parts I need (compressor, condensor, TXV, dryer/accumulator), but I'm happy to pay extra if there's any benefit (i.e. quality and/or durability).
Hi Luxobarge
Could you let us know which model numbers for the compressor,etc?
I don't think the Acura TSX has the same compressor as the Australian Honda Accord Euro???
Thanks

Belt is the same, so same sized pulley. Looks like the casing is the same to, just has a 3 pin connector instead of 2. Think if you search you will find someone from South Africa who used a TSX compressor by swapping over their old wiring.
Also, if you search the local part number, you will likely find after-market compressors, but the pictures might not match. Think they are taken from the JayAir catalogue which has the wrong part pictured.
