Keep your air conditioning cool and clean with the Four Seasons A/C Receiver Drier / Desiccant Element (MPN 83233), a filter drier desiccant bag kit supplied with a plug. It's a direct-fit replacement for a wide range of applications, including the 2019-2025 Acura RDX, 2021-2025 Acura TLX, 2014-2019 Cadillac CTS, 2017-2025 Honda CR-V, 2019-2023 Jeep Cherokee, and 2019-2025 Ram 2500 and 3500 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list. Refer to the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific coverage.
Whenever the A/C system is opened or serviced, the drier should be replaced — many compressor warranties require it.
What does this receiver drier / desiccant element do?
It acts as a filter, removing moisture and contaminants from the A/C system. Its desiccant bag absorbs moisture that flushing cannot clear.
Does it come with installation hardware?
Yes. This kit includes the necessary gaskets, o-rings, and seal, along with a plug, to help make installation straightforward.
Why should I replace the drier when servicing the A/C?
Contaminants and moisture can't be flushed out, so the drier is replaced during service. Many compressor warranties also require replacing it anytime the system is opened.
Can a saturated desiccant bag cause problems?
Yes. An open or leaking system can saturate the desiccant bag within a few hours, which makes the drier ineffective at absorbing moisture.
Will this fit my vehicle?
It's listed for many applications, including the Acura RDX, Honda CR-V, Jeep Cherokee, and Ram 2500. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact year and model.
