If you replace the compressor (very likely) you will need to replace the reciever/dryer as well as the expansion valve because if you don't it will invalidate the warranty on the compressor.

Other than that, plan on spending a ludicrous amount of money as these places just love to gouge your wallet....

I just had the reeming treatment myself. $600 to be precise. That was for the labor, not the parts....

Now, however, my system should not leak anymore...
