Air conditioner compressor Sanden SD6V12 Citroen Peugeot 1449 9655191580

Description

Air conditioning compressor for Citroen PEUGEOT cars
It is from a PEUGEOT 307 CC 2.0i
Car mileage 161 thousand km

Part description

This Sanden SD6V12 air conditioner compressor is a used part designed for Citroën/Peugeot cars. It is a key part of the air conditioning system – when functioning properly, it ensures the pressurization of the coolant and thus effective cooling in the cabin.

The part comes from a PEUGEOT 307 CC 2.0i with 161,000 km. When choosing, we recommend comparing the markings and product numbers directly on the compressor with the existing part – for air conditioning, matching the codes is the surest way to the right part.

Installation recommendations

Generally/typically for changing the air conditioning compressor (the exact procedure may vary according to the specific model and design of the car):

1) Before assembly

• Compare all numbers on the compressor (eg 9655191580 / 9800822280 / 6453QE) and type designation with the old part.
• Check the condition of the connector, attachment, threads and sealing surfaces (no grooves or cracks).
• Verify that the compressor rotates freely (without stuttering) and has no signs of mechanical damage.

2) Necessary tools and materials

• Common hand tools (ratchet, extensions, wrenches), tools for disassembling accessories according to access.
• New gaskets/O-rings for A/C connections (typically changed during disassembly).
• Equipment for extraction and filling of air conditioning (service station) – work with refrigerant is carried out professionally.

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Secure the vehicle against movement and allow the engine to cool.
2. Have the refrigerant expertly extracted from the air conditioning system (do not release into the air).
3. Disconnect the battery (minimizing the risk of short circuit when working with the connectors).
4. Get access to the compressor (removal of covers/accessories depending on the car).
5. Disconnect compressor/clutch electrical connector (if used).
6. Loosen and remove the accessory belt according to the normal procedure for the engine.
7. Unscrew the air conditioner pipe from the compressor; immediately blind/cover the open ends to prevent moisture and dirt from entering the system.
8. Dismantle the fixing screws and remove the old compressor.
9. Prepare the used compressor: clean the mating surfaces and use new gaskets on the joints.
10. Install the compressor on the bracket and fix it, then connect the A/C pipe.
11. Put on the accessory belt and check for proper routing.
12. Connect the electrical connector, reassemble the removed parts and connect the battery.
13. Evacuate and then fill the air conditioner with a service station, then a functional test.
• 4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification
  • Check that the air conditioner turns on and cools, and that there are no unusual sounds.
  • Verify connections for tightness and visually check for oil/coolant leaks.
  • After a short ride, recheck the attachment, connector and belt guide.

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

  • Omission of gasket replacement → often leads to leakage; use new gaskets and clean mating surfaces.
  • Circuit contamination when disconnecting pipes → blind the line and work cleanly, minimize system open time.
  • Poorly guided/tensioned belt → can cause noise and damage; check the belt guide before starting.
  • Filling without vacuuming and leak checking → typically degrades performance and shortens lifespan; use the correct service procedure.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • Lack of refrigerant or oil in the system (leaks) – leads to insufficient lubrication and compressor seizing.
  • Impurities in the circuit (sawdust after a malfunction, clogged system) – damage the internal parts of the compressor.
  • Moisture in the system – promotes corrosion and problems with tightness and functionality.
  • Overloading the belt drive or improper belt condition/tension – can cause noise, slippage and subsequent damage.
  • Age and normal wear and tear – clearance, fatigue of seals and bearings increases with time.
