In my case, the windows stopped clearing fog this winter. Compressor would kick in, quite noisily. When I took it in and they tried to do a purge and recharge, the compressor would activate, but wouldn't draw any refrigerant into the system.
Replacing the compressor has worked like a charm.
Can't complain about the original - 13 years and 250k, so lots of use before it crapped out.
I agree that pre-emptive replacement is overkill and certainly doing it at the same time as a belt replacement isn't saving any material labor. If it's known bad, my point was an experienced tech took 3 hours (that's how long I waited by the way, not just a rate on the invoice).
