Product Details

Denso 478-2094 is an A/C receiver drier built to manage refrigerant flow while helping isolate moisture from the HVAC system. In receiver-drier service, moisture control matters because excess water can contribute to internal corrosion and premature A/C wear. This unit follows Denso First Time Fit standards and is intended for Mitsubishi Lancer models from 2002 through 2007, including 2004 applications noted before and after the 12/2003 and 01/2004 changeover points. This part cross-references Mitsubishi MR500065 for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Moisture contamination in the A/C system
• Corrosion inside HVAC components
• Unstable refrigerant flow during A/C operation
• Reduced cooling performance after major A/C service
• Premature wear related to contaminated refrigerant circuits

Installation Notes and Tips

Replace the receiver drier during major A/C service, especially when the system has been opened for repair. Confirm the vehicle build date on 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer models, since fitment differs before 12/2003 and from 01/2004. Verify the female inlet and outlet connections and match the block union layout before installation. For best results, evacuate and recharge the system according to factory service procedures.

Quality Assurance

Denso manufactures this receiver drier to stringent factory standards for new-car performance and efficiency. The desiccant package is included to help protect internal A/C components from moisture-related damage.
