Part Description
This OEM A/C air compressor was removed from a 2009 Honda Pilot with the 3.5L V6 engine. The compressor has been inspected by our technicians and is currently on the shelf ready for immediate shipment. All mounting brackets and electrical connections are intact.
The A/C compressor is the heart of your vehicle’s air conditioning system, pressurizing refrigerant to create cold air. Common reasons for replacement include internal bearing failure, clutch problems, refrigerant leaks, or electrical issues. A failing compressor often produces grinding noises, won’t engage, or causes the A/C system to blow warm air.
