What does this receiver drier / desiccant element do?
It acts as a filter, removing moisture and contaminants from the A/C system while its desiccant bag absorbs moisture — debris that cannot be cleared by flushing the system.
What comes in the kit?
It ships as a Filter Drier Desiccant Bag Kit with the plug, plus the necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal for installation.
When should the drier be replaced?
Replace it anytime the A/C system is opened or serviced. Four Seasons notes that replacing the filter drier is required to validate the compressor warranty.
Why can the desiccant bag stop working?
A leaking or open system exposes the desiccant to excess moisture, which can saturate the bag within a few hours and leave the drier ineffective.
Will this fit my vehicle?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, covering many Acura, Audi, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Ford, Honda and other models. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.
