DENSO compressors are original equipment on 45% of vehicles in the North American market. Before release, DENSO First Time Fit compressors go through the company's strict risk-control development process and are built and tested to strict OE standards. The goal is the right part and the right fit the first time, which helps you avoid a costly re-installation.
Signs that a compressor may need replacing include warm air from the vents, noise when the A/C is switched on, a clutch that will not engage, or oil leaking at the compressor. If a failed compressor is the cause, the 471-1121 replaces it.
