Component Overview



Component Overview

HD = High pressure side
ND = Low pressure side








1. A/C Compressor Regulator Valve N280
- Checking activation and function 1)

2. Compressor
- Removing compressor from bracket/reinstalling and 1)
- When installing refrigerant lines and corresponding bracket, make sure there is sufficient distance between belt, bracket and pulley.
- Type of compressor differs depending on engine (installed to right or left of engine).
