Four Seasons 55431 a/c refrigerant suction hose for the 1998-2005 Volkswagen Beetle carries refrigerant on the suction side of the A/C system back to the compressor. It is also sold as a suction line hose assembly.
- Double wall barrier hose, compatible with R1234YF, R134A or R12
- Crimp fitting connection
- Application specific design
- Engineered and tested for trouble-free operation
- Backed by over 50 years of mobile A/C experience
Weak cooling, oily residue around the hose or its fittings, or visible damage to the hose can mean the suction hose is leaking. Before you replace it, rule out a fault elsewhere in the A/C system, such as at the compressor or another line, because other parts can lead to the same loss of cooling. If a leaking suction hose is the cause, this assembly replaces it.
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2005 Volkswagen Beetle.
