Hello, Labor time to replace the A/c compressor is 1.2 hours plus .6 to evacuate and recharge the system. A remanufactured compressor is around $350. 2 pounds of r134a refrigerent will cost about $40.

They sell, do it yourself kits to add refrigerent, but I do not recommend it. For a system to function properly it must be vaccumed with a special machine, to remove moisture.
