Part Description
This A/C air compressor was removed from a 2015 KIA KIAOPT equipped with a 2.4L engine (VIN 7 – 8th digit). The compressor has been thoroughly inspected by our certified technicians and is currently on the shelf ready to ship. All mounting points and electrical connections are intact and in good 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 seals, or electrical issues with the clutch coil. A failing compressor often produces grinding noises, fails to engage, or causes the A/C system to blow warm air.
