Pull moisture and debris out of your air conditioning system with the Four Seasons A/C Receiver Drier / Filter Drier (MPN 33601). It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2000 Chrysler Town & Country, 1996-2000 Dodge Caravan, 1996-2000 Dodge Grand Caravan, 1996-2000 Plymouth Grand Voyager, 1996-2000 Plymouth Voyager, 2000 Chrysler Grand Voyager and 2000 Chrysler Voyager — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
The filter drier acts as a filter, removing moisture and contaminants from the A/C system — contaminants that flushing alone cannot remove. The desiccant can become saturated within a few hours if the system is left open or leaking, so replacement is essential whenever the system is serviced. Four Seasons notes that replacing the drier is required to validate the compressor warranty. This part is listed under both the A/C Receiver Drier and Filter Drier names.
What does this receiver drier do?
It acts as a filter, removing moisture and contaminants from the air conditioning system using a desiccant — contaminants that cannot be removed by flushing the system.
What's included with MPN 33601?
Four Seasons includes the necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal for installation. It is an aluminum filter drier with a pad mount.
Does this fit my vehicle?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-2000 Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan/Grand Caravan, Plymouth Grand Voyager/Voyager, and the 2000 Chrysler Grand Voyager and Voyager. Check the Buyer's Guide tab.
When should the filter drier be replaced?
It should be replaced anytime the A/C system is opened or serviced. Four Seasons also notes that replacing it is required to validate the compressor warranty.
Why can't the drier just be flushed instead of replaced?
Flushing cannot remove the contaminants the drier collects, and a saturated desiccant bag stays ineffective, so replacing the drier is the correct service.
