What is it that requires repairing? In order to be specific, I need to know what is wrong.

Replacement of the compressor and evacuating/refilling the system should take about 2-3 hours. BMW warranty time is 6 fru for the compressor and 12 fru to evacuate/recharge. There are 8 fru to the hour or each fru is 7.5 minutes. This time allows for most problems that can (and do) pop up during repairs. Is the drier bottle getting replaced? Is there a warranty for the parts and labor?

I was asking if the repairs come with a warranty agreement.
