Part Description
This OEM A/C air compressor was removed from a 2012 Scion xD and has been thoroughly inspected for quality and functionality. The compressor is in excellent working condition and is currently on our shelf ready for immediate shipment. All mounting points and electrical connections have been verified to ensure proper fitment.
The A/C compressor is the heart of your vehicle’s air conditioning system, pressurizing refrigerant to create cool air. Common reasons for replacement include clutch failure, internal seal leaks, bearing noise, or compressor seizure. When your A/C stops blowing cold air or makes grinding noises, the compressor is often the culprit requiring replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this A/C compressor fit my 2012 Scion xD?
Yes, this compressor is specifically from a 2012 Scion xD and will be a direct fit. The interchange number 50266 confirms compatibility with your vehicle.
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 used compressor. The system should also be flushed to remove any contamination from the previous compressor failure.
How much refrigerant oil should I add to this compressor?
The exact oil capacity varies by application, but typically 3-6 ounces of PAG oil is required. Check your vehicle’s service manual for the specific oil type and quantity for your A/C system.
What causes A/C compressors to fail?
Common causes include refrigerant leaks leading to low refrigerant levels, contamination from other failed components, electrical issues with the clutch, or normal wear of internal seals and bearings over time.
Can I install this A/C compressor myself?
A/C compressor replacement requires specialized tools for refrigerant recovery and recharging, plus vacuum pumps for system evacuation. Professional installation is recommended due to EPA regulations regarding refrigerant handling.
How do I know if my A/C compressor is bad?
Signs include no cold air, loud grinding or squealing noises from the compressor area, clutch not engaging, or visible refrigerant leaks around the compressor. A professional diagnosis can confirm compressor failure.
