How to remove and install the A/C Compressor on Lexus ES350?

The receiver/drier should be replaced whenever the compressor is replaced. First, have the refrigerant discharged by an automotive air conditioning technician. Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands, then remove the passenger's side front wheel and the lower inner fender corner splash shield(s). Drain the cooling system. Remove the drivebelt from the compressor. Remove the alternator. For 2009 and earlier four-cylinder models, detach the upper radiator hose from the thermostat housing and remove the clamp that supports the refrigerant lines. For 2010 and later four-cylinder models and all V6 models, remove the air cleaner assembly and air inlet duct, then remove the front bumper and the radiator. For all models, detach the electrical connector and the refrigerant lines, unbolt the compressor, and lift it from the vehicle. If a new or rebuilt compressor is being installed, follow the directions that come with it regarding the proper level of oil prior to installation. Installation is the reverse of removal; replace any O-rings with new ones specifically made for the purpose and lubricate them with refrigerant oil. Finally, have the system evacuated, recharged, and leak tested by the shop that discharged it.

Lexus ES350 A/C Compressor

The Lexus ES350 A/C Compressor is the heart of the cabin cooling system and rapidly pressurizes refrigerant to make cool air available to the passengers even in the summer heat. By means of the A/C Compressor, the low-pressure gas is turned into high-pressure, high-temperature gas, which draws the hot gas into the condenser to cool down. The cold gas then enters the evaporator, where the cool breeze is emitted, making the A/C Compressor indispensable. Because the compressor operates continuously, Lexus drivers may notice the vents getting warmer as wear sets in, so routine checks help to catch the A/C Compressor's leaks early on Lexus cars. Over the years, the ES350 has made use of two primary refrigerant setups, with early ES350 models being set up with R12 and later models switching to the cleaner R134a. Each of these refrigerant setups requires an A/C Compressor unit with the correct oil to prevent damage. While the principle pumping mechanism remains unchanged, the seals and fittings of the later style are applied with R134a pressures and chemistry and are therefore differentiated from the older type. Whichever version your Lexus ES350 uses, a healthy A/C Compressor ensures constant temperature control for every owner of the ES350.

Should you need to purchase new auto parts for your vehicle, we strongly suggest you consider the genuine Lexus ES350 A/C Compressor available on LexusPartsNow.com. Our OEM Lexus ES350 A/C Compressor come with the reassurance of the manufacturer's warranty, a hassle-free return policy, and speedy delivery service, all at affordable prices online.
