I will be replacing a AC compressor on a 2007 V-6 Accord in a couple of days. Of course I will be evacuating the AC system first. My question is how involved is it to replace? I have replaced, vacuumed, recharged many AC systems before. How involved is this task? I have never replaced a compressor on the J-series before. Any help is appreciated.

Why are you replacing it? I suggest the ackits.com forum for AC issues.

Replaced yesterday. Just wanted to know the process, so I purchased a Haynes manual. Didn't know if it was to removed or installed from top or bottom. Installed from the top, vacuumed the system, charged up with freon, and now she is blowing 40 degrees. Thanks everyone.

I am going to have to do the same thing on my 07 in the next few weekends. Any tips and knowledge you can share?

It was straight forward. Removed fan near compressor, I'm sure I removed the alternator next, then removed the compressor. I think this job is easier on the V-6 than the 4-bangers. Vacuumed the system down, refilled with freon. Easy
