Product details

About this part

The number 1J0820803F identifies this air conditioning compressor, which fits VW BORA, BORA I and BORA Variant as set out in the fitment table.

On this application the compressor is a swash plate or scroll design, and it is supplied with the clutch and the pulley already fitted. The unit draws low pressure vapour from the evaporator, compresses it to high pressure, and discharges it to the condenser, which is the whole reason the cabin gets cold.

The fitment we have confirmed runs from 1991.08 to 2015.08, split across 12 references in the table, so check the chassis code against the list before you order.

Internal clearances are set on the line, which is why the unit does not have to be shimmed on fitting. Each unit is pressure tested and run in on a test stand, and the clutch is checked for pull in voltage and for slip torque before packing.

No cold air with the clutch not engaging is often the clutch coil or the low pressure switch, so check both before condemning the compressor. A squeal on engagement that goes away once the clutch is fully in points at the belt or the clutch air gap. Cold air that fades as the engine speed rises is a sign of a compressor that is worn internally rather than a refrigerant leak.

Check the clutch air gap and the belt alignment after fitting, and confirm the pressures at idle and at 2000 rpm. Evacuate the system for at least 45 minutes before charging, and leak test at the ports after charging. Flush the system and replace the receiver drier and the expansion valve whenever a compressor is replaced, or the debris will destroy the new unit. The compressor is packed with the ports capped, in a carton with foam corners.
