A/C Accumulators

Great alternative to buying the original. Replaces the factory A/C accumulator. Right out of the box it’s in good shape. Seems to be durable – the test of the time will show. I think it’s a good bang for the buck if you’re looking for a cost-effective replacement for a worn-out part.

The leak on my car was at the steel accumulator where the aluminum hose connects. The different metals are not compatible and they corrode causing a stuck leaking connection. Both suction lines and the accumulator on my car had to be replaced. Also the connecting stud at the compressor broke during removal so I had to pull the compressor to replace the stud. All of the oil had leaked out of the system, so I would recommend pulling your compressor and checking the oil level when replacing any lines. The parts I bought from CARiD were a perfect fit at half the price of the local parts stores. My leak is fixed.
