This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does this receiver drier / desiccant element do?
It acts as a filter, using a desiccant bag to remove moisture and contaminants from the A/C system — debris that flushing alone cannot remove.
What's included in the kit?
The filter drier desiccant bag kit includes a plug plus the necessary gaskets, o-rings, and seal for installation.
Does this fit my vehicle?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2018 Porsche Cayenne and 2011-2017 Volkswagen Touareg. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Do I need to replace the drier when servicing the A/C?
Four Seasons states the filter drier must be replaced anytime the system is serviced, and replacement is required to validate the compressor warranty.
What are signs the desiccant may be saturated?
A leaking or "open" system can saturate the desiccant bag within a few hours, making the drier ineffective at absorbing moisture. Replacing it restores that function.
