    All stock... NAVI, bluetooth, Siruis, TRD wheels.
    I have a 2005 Tacoma 4cyl. 5speed 4x4 acc. cab, and because it has set for long periods of time (39k miles) the A/C began to leak through the seals of the compressor... Local mechanic told me to try Autozone's A/C sealer kit. NEVER EVER USE SEALER!!!! My entire system is apart and I am replacing the expansion valve along with trying to find a A/C inline filter (not a orifice tube). No local parts stores has them nor can find them in there system... I found one that looks exactly like the one I need on ebay from santech MT1584 (Item number: 120920503232) but ebay says not compatible. Can anyone confirm if that is the part I need or any advice?

    FYI, I would call my local dealer but they are out for repairs (construction) and I need A/C ASAP because it's HOT!!! :) Also, the expansion valve will fit cadillac escalades and chev. trucks as well as our tacoma's and the inline filter is the same (for cadi/chev) but does not cross reference to tacoma's. Any help is appreciated.
