Last year the Rear A/C Unit stopped blowing cold air and now the Front side has also quit. I've been told its the compressor and along with that there are (2) valves and a few filters that need changed. Is this right and if so how much should it cost?

Hello,

Any time the A/C compressor gets replaced, it is recommended to replace the receiver dryer, expansion valve and orifice tube. This will extend the life of the new compressor and give you the best performance.

Here are couple of helpful articles:

I have included the replacement procedures for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
