Application in Peugeot and Citroen 1.6 HDI Models

The presented air conditioning compressor is designed for popular models such as Peugeot 3008 and 307, and Citroen C4 and C5 equipped with the 1.6 HDI diesel engine. By retaining the original design, the compressor works with the original engine accessories, air conditioning lines, and electronic control, which simplifies installation and reduces the risk of compatibility issues.

The air conditioning system in diesel units operates under varying thermal conditions, therefore, using the correct compressor is important for:

• stable refrigerant pressure across the entire engine speed range,
• maintaining efficient cabin cooling during city and highway driving,
• proper cooperation with the drive accessories in the diesel engine.

Technical and Construction Characteristics

The compressor belongs to the group of components in the Air Conditioning Compressors and Clutches category, meaning it is designed to work with a suitably matched belt drive and compressor clutch. The design intended for diesel units ensures appropriate resistance to loads resulting from higher engine torque and the specific characteristics of diesel operation.

Key functional features include:

• factory fit for the air conditioning system in Peugeot and Citroen vehicles with the 1.6 HDI engine,
• retention of original mounting points to the engine block and accessories,
• adaptation for use with the appropriate type of refrigerant used in these model generations.

This means installation does not require modifications to the system or mounting points, which is important for both workshops and individual users.

Condition, Origin, and Benefits of Choosing a Used Compressor

The offered air conditioning compressor is a used original part, sourced from dismantling. In practice, this means retaining the vehicle manufacturer's factory specifications while allowing for reduced repair costs compared to a new part. For many users, this is a sensible compromise between price and quality, especially for daily-driven cars.

Choosing a used OEM compressor allows for:

• maintaining factory air conditioning operating characteristics without the risk of parameter mismatch,
• reducing service costs while preserving the original design,
• maintaining compatibility with the vehicle's electronics and air conditioning control.
