The dryer is the filter for the A/C system. Anytime you break open the system you are supposed to replace it. Not really much the dealer could do to mess up the compressor. The only thing I can think of is if the system got low on oil.
How would one check this oil level? And I don't remember them saying anything about a dryer. Also I'm getting the new compressor installed on Monday so any advice between now and then would be greatly appreciated just don't want to have this happen again
