Honda CR-V Compressor
Following our Tech Tip on parallel flow condenser and scroll compressors, it is worth noting that the Honda CR-V comes up as topic of conversation with shops. Debris gets lodged in the A/C system after the original compressor has failed and a replacement compressor has been fitted. This happens because the debris from the original compressor gets lodged in the condenser and can cause the replacement compressor to experience a catastrophic failure. This will be noticeable as the replacement compressor fitted will have had holes and large cracks in the body of the
compressor.
To avoid a warranty situation, remind your customers that we advise them to replace the following:
1. Compressor with clutch.
2. Condenser with dryer (Condenser cannot be flushed)
3. Expansion valve.
4. Seals and o rings.
5. Suction and discharge hoses.
6.Flush Evaporator.
