Technical Characteristics of the Air Conditioning Compressor

The offered air conditioning pump is an original Volkswagen brand component, designed to work with the factory air conditioning system in the concern's vehicles. The compressor's design ensures stable refrigerant compression, which translates to predictable system pressure and adequate interior cooling performance.

Thanks to the use of original solutions for the lubrication system, seals, and compressor control, they are adapted to the operating parameters intended by the vehicle manufacturer. The product has an assigned OEM part number and corresponding interchangeable numbers, which facilitates selection based on the specific car configuration and engine version.

Compatibility within the VW Group

The VW Audi Seat Skoda Air Conditioning Compressor AC Pump 5Q0816803D has been developed with the platforms used in Volkswagen Group vehicles in mind. This means maintaining the correct mounting spacing, appropriate refrigerant line connections, and a compatible electrical control connector.

The presence of interchangeable numbers allows this compressor to be used as a replacement in various equipment variants, while maintaining compatibility with the factory installation. In practice, this simplifies servicing and reduces the risk of installation problems, as the component is designed as part of the system, not a universal replacement.

Condition, Origin, and Benefits of Choosing a Used Compressor

The offered air conditioning compressor comes from the segment of original used parts, which means maintaining the factory specifications at a more favorable cost compared to a new component. The product's condition is described as used, making it a sensible choice for repairing the air conditioning system in everyday vehicles.

Choosing an original, used air conditioning pump allows for:

• maintaining the original operating characteristics of the air conditioning system – without the need for system adaptation,
• preserving compatibility with the vehicle's electronics – compressor control operates according to the manufacturer's specifications,
• reducing repair costs while using a component from the same product line as the factory-installed one.

Selection and Practical Application in Servicing

Before installation, it is recommended to verify the compressor's compatibility with the vehicle based on the OEM part number and interchangeable numbers visible in the technical specifications. This allows for precise matching of the component to the specific model and year, minimizing the risk of connection or control incompatibilities.

In workshop practice, installing an original compressor from the same product family facilitates:

• maintaining correct tension and routing of the accessory belt,
• proper bleeding and filling of the air conditioning system according to the manufacturer's procedure,
• computer diagnostics – the air conditioning control unit recognizes the correct compressor type.
