Global Parts 3411356 A/C Expansion Valve

Global Parts A/C Expansion Valve for Kia Rio

Restore refrigerant control in the HVAC system with Global Parts part number 3411356. This A/C expansion valve slows refrigerant before it enters the evaporator, helping the system use cooling capacity more effectively on 2002-2005 Kia Rio models.

• Fits 2002-2005 Kia Rio, N/A
• Global Parts part number 3411356
• Expansion valve/orifice tube style flow control for the A/C system
• Helps regulate refrigerant flow into the evaporator
• Cross-references UAC EX10091C and EX10159C for the same application

How It Works

The expansion valve meters refrigerant into the evaporator at the proper rate so the A/C system can absorb heat efficiently. On Kia Rio applications, a worn or restricted valve can reduce cooling performance, create uneven vent temperatures, or contribute to compressor strain. Global Parts 3411356 is built for direct replacement service on 2002-2005 Kia Rio vehicles.

Common A/C Problems It Can Address

• Weak cabin cooling
• Inconsistent vent temperature
• Restricted refrigerant flow through the evaporator circuit
• Compressor cycling caused by poor system metering
• Reduced A/C performance after system service

Installation Notes

Replace the expansion valve during A/C service when the system has been opened, contaminated, or repaired. Proper evacuation, leak checking, and refrigerant recharge are required after installation. Verify the vehicle application before ordering part number 3411356 for your Kia Rio.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts recommends replacing the expansion valve/orifice tube each time the A/C system is serviced to help maintain proper refrigerant control and cooling performance.
