Hey folks, my indy just gave me a quote for a A/C compressor for $1200 REBUILT! I have a 87 190D 2.5 N/A and was wondering if anyone has a better way to skin the cat. Any good A/C rebuilders in the Denver area? BTW If is just the seals, I may change'm out myself, so anyone has the pullers to get at the seals as shown in the F.S.M.???? Thanks! Clip

Go look on ebay for a good reman. I bought one for my 300SEL there (should be similar it's a 17C for that car) for just around $200 delivered. Their failure rate was less than 2% and most are cases of improper install...
