Keep the refrigerant circulating and the cabin comfortable with the Four Seasons A/C Compressor 158485, a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2013 Subaru Forester. As the heart of the air-conditioning system, the compressor draws low-pressure refrigerant vapor from the evaporator, compresses it, and delivers high-pressure refrigerant on to the condenser so the cooling cycle can continue.
If a failed compressor is the cause of your A/C trouble, this unit replaces it. When servicing the system, follow the vehicle service procedure for proper evacuation, refrigerant, and lubricant handling.
