This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does this receiver drier do?
It acts as a filter, using a desiccant element to remove moisture and contaminants from the A/C refrigerant — debris that flushing alone cannot clear from the system.
What vehicles does MPN 83412 fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2018-2025 Volkswagen Atlas and 2020-2025 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact application.
Does it include installation hardware?
Yes. This kit includes a plug along with the necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal needed for installation.
Why should I replace the drier when servicing the A/C?
A leaking or open system can saturate the desiccant bag within a few hours, making the drier ineffective. Many makers require replacing it during service to help validate compressor warranty.
How is this drier built?
It's produced in an ISO/TS16949 and ISO14001 certified facility and features quality welds for a durable, leak-free design with high-quality desiccant.
