Part description

This Sanden SD6V12 air conditioner compressor is intended for cars of the Stellantis group (Citroën/Peugeot) and represents a suitable solution for malfunctioning or noisy air conditioning. It is a used original part that was removed from a car with a low mileage – an ideal choice for mechanics and home repairs when it is necessary to quickly restore the function of the air conditioning without unnecessary compromises.

If you are looking for a part by number, OE/product designations are listed in the menu, according to which the air conditioner compressor can be easily matched with the old part.

Installation recommendations

Generally/typically applies to replacing the air conditioning compressor in Citroën/Peugeot cars (the exact procedure may vary according to the specific model and design):

1) Before assembly

• Compare with the old part: part numbers (OE), type (SD6V12), mounting, connector/electrical connection, dimensional position of connections.
• Check the condition of the used compressor: undamaged body, threads, attachment ears, connector, connections; without cracks and obvious traces of seizing.
• Visually check the sealing surfaces and connection points of the air conditioning line (cleanliness, no grooves).

2) Necessary tools and materials

• Common hand tools (ratchet, extensions, wrenches, screwdrivers).
• Suitable equipment for working with air conditioning (service station/refrigerant extraction and filling).
• Clean rags, protective gloves and goggles.
• New sealing elements for connecting the air conditioning line (typically O-rings) according to the specific application.

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Have the refrigerant expertly extracted from the air conditioning circuit (this is not a normal service operation without equipment).
2. Disconnect the battery (recommended for the safety of working in the engine compartment and handling the wiring).
3. Ensure access to the compressor according to the layout of the specific car (removal of covers/etc. as required).
4. Disconnect the electrical connector of the compressor.
5. Carefully disconnect the air conditioning pipe from the compressor; immediately protect the open ends from dirt.
6. Dismantle the fixing screws and remove the old compressor.
7. Prepare the landing surfaces and check that no dirt has entered the system.
8. Install the air conditioning compressor, seat it correctly in the brackets and tighten the fasteners according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
9. Install the A/C pipe with the appropriate seal and check for proper seating.
10. Connect the electrical connector.
11. Evacuate and then fill the air conditioning system at a service station.
12. After filling, check the tightness and function of the air conditioner.

• 4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification

  • Verify that the air conditioner switches and runs without unusual noises.
  • Check the connections for tightness and visually inspect the pipe connections again.
  • After a short ride, check again for leaks or loose connections.

  5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them

  • Using old/unsuitable seals → always use the correct sealing elements for the particular connection.
  • Insufficient check of part compatibility → compare the numbers and design with the old compressor before assembly.
  • Filling without vacuuming and leak checking → after assembly, always vacuum, test and fill at a service station.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • Lack of lubrication in the circuit (e.g. after a leak or long-term neglected air conditioning service).
  • Impurities in the system after another component has failed, which can cause the compressor to seize.
  • Air conditioning circuit leaks leading to incorrect operating conditions.
  • Long-term overloading (frequent operation without proper filling and maintenance).
  • Mechanical damage (impact, damage to holder/mounting or connections).
