2011 BMW 550i xDrive Air Conditioning Parts

Carquest Expansion Valves are designed to regulate the flow of refrigerant through the air conditioning system to provide optimal cooling to the passenger compartment. Each expansion valve is manufactured to original equipment specifications to perform its function even in the harshest climates. Each part is supplied with the necessary gaskets and o-rings for installation.

Product Features:

• The bodies of these expansion valves are machined from a single block of aluminum or brass metal.
• Each expansion valve has settings for tonnage and superheat based on the vehicle specifications.
• Each expansion valve is tested for function and leakage according to OEM specifications to ensure optimal performance of the air conditioning system.
• O-Rings necessary for installation are included.

Like all DENSO First Time Fit® A/C components, our condensers are designed and manufactured to integrate seamlessly with the vehicle’s original air conditioning system. DENSO condensers match up to OE condensers at every benchmark. Multiflow, subcooling, and the latest Ssrpentine condenser styles are offered to provide the optimum configuration for each application. Premium aluminum construction improves reliability, resisting corrosion to avoid expensive system leaks, while the superior fin wave design offers higher heat transfer and maximum refrigerant condensation. Heat exchanger cores are specially designed to shed airborne material buildup, allowing the A/C system to operate at peak efficiency with minimal maintenance, assuring years of trouble-free service.

• Zinc diffusion layer improves corrosion resistance
• Unique fin design to minimize airflow blockage
• High performance design reduces the required compressor power
• System Efficiency: Superior fin waves provide a higher heat transfer coefficient and full condensation.
• Engineered to Perfection: OE quality engineered for unparalleled performance
• Exact Fit: Condensers install with speed and ease
• Reduces required compressor power, resulting improved fuel economy
• Restores A/C performance to as-new condition
• First Time Fit® assures bolt-in replacement; no brackets or adapters
• Greater Durability: Pure aluminum construction provides greater resistance for corrosion

The Carquest condenser is an integral component of the motor vehicle air conditioning system. This part condenses the refrigerant into a liquid to prepare it for entry into the compressor. The condenser is manufactured according to OEM design specifications to ensure a long life with quality performance. Exact design standards produce a seamless fit into the engine compartment.

Product Features:

• This is a parallel flow condenser that contains small micro-channels. It is highly recommended that this condenser be replaced if a failure has occurred in the vehicle’s air conditioning system that has resulted in debris contaminating the system. This
• This Carquest condenser has a drier attached to it with an interior desiccant bag which will provide optimal moisture removal in the a/c system to maximize cooling performance.
• The Carquest condenser production process includes quality driven details such as using zinc-coated tubes and electrostatic paint spray at high temperatures to provide the best corrosion resistance and durability in our condensers.
• Continuous molds, laser welding machines, semi-automatic assembly stations and other advanced equipment provide quality products.
• Each condenser uses only the highest quality raw materials including pure aluminum (not substandard or recycled) to provide the highest quality standards from beginning to finished product.
• All brackets are designed per OEM specifications to ensure strength and reduce vibration and movement.
• We leak test 100% of our condensers in helium leak test chambers to ensure the product does not leak.
• Our condensers are manufactured from rigid design standards to fit OEM dimensions.
• Each condenser design endures a series of tests that includes performance testing, vibration testing, blast testing, and salt spray testing to simulate real world conditions.
