What This Product Does

The compressor raises refrigerant pressure and drives circulation around the air-conditioning circuit. This allows the system to transfer heat away from the cabin; an internally worn, seized or leaking compressor can interrupt that process.

Functions

• Compresses refrigerant vapour.
• Circulates refrigerant through the cooling circuit.
• Supports cabin temperature control when operating with the remaining A/C components.
  
  

Technical Details

• Brand: OE Match.
• Compressor reference: 94412600801.
• Diagram equipment designation: PR:573, air conditioner.
  
  

Symptoms of Fault

• Air remains warm despite selecting A/C.
• Compressor engagement is absent or intermittent.
• Rattling, knocking or belt squeal occurs during operation.
• Oily traces appear around the compressor shaft seal.
• Diagnostic pressure measurements indicate inadequate compression.
  
  

These signs do not establish compressor failure on their own. Refrigerant loss, electrical faults and restrictions elsewhere in the circuit should also be investigated.

Why Replacement Matters

Renewal may be necessary when diagnosis confirms seizure, leakage, internal damage or insufficient pressure generation. Establishing the underlying cause matters: contamination, inadequate lubrication or another defective component can damage a replacement. OE Match's Porsche-focused parts programme uses application and specification checks when assessing replacement components.

FAQs

Will a refrigerant recharge solve weak cooling?
Possibly, if the compressor remains serviceable. Repeated refrigerant loss requires leak diagnosis rather than repeated recharging.

Should the receiver-drier and system cleanliness be checked?
Yes. Internal compressor damage can leave debris elsewhere in the circuit. Have a qualified technician determine the necessary cleaning and component replacement.

What oil should be used?
Confirm the required lubricant and quantity against the compressor instructions and vehicle specification. Do not assume the supplied oil charge is ready for installation.
