Part Description
This A/C air compressor was removed from a 2012 Hyundai Elantra sedan equipped with manual temperature control. The compressor has been inspected by our parts specialists and is currently on the shelf ready for immediate shipment. All mounting points and electrical connections are intact and in working condition.
The A/C compressor is the heart of your vehicle’s air conditioning system, pressurizing and circulating refrigerant throughout the system. Common reasons for replacement include internal bearing failure, clutch problems, refrigerant leaks from worn seals, or electrical issues with the clutch coil. When your A/C stops blowing cold air or makes grinding noises, the compressor is often the culprit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this A/C compressor fit my 2013 Hyundai Elantra?
Yes, this compressor fits 2011-2013 Hyundai Elantra models with manual temperature control. Verify your vehicle has manual A/C controls rather than automatic climate control before ordering.
Do I need to replace other A/C components with the compressor?
It’s recommended to replace the receiver/drier and expansion valve when installing a replacement compressor. The A/C system should also be flushed to remove any debris or contaminated oil.
What causes A/C compressors to fail in Hyundai Elantras?
Common failure points include worn internal bearings, clutch coil burnout, refrigerant leaks from shaft seals, and contamination from other system components. Regular A/C service helps prevent premature compressor failure.
Is this compressor ready to install or does it need preparation?
This compressor is ready to install but will need proper refrigerant oil added during installation. Your technician should follow Hyundai’s specifications for oil type and quantity.
How much does it cost to ship an A/C compressor?
Shipping costs vary by location – typically $34-$49 in New England, $49-$64 in the Northeast, and $64-$110 depending on your distance from New Hampshire.
