Global Parts 3411524 A/C Expansion Valve

BMW Z4 A/C Expansion Valve

Global Parts 3411524 is an A/C expansion valve for the 2009-2016 BMW Z4. It regulates refrigerant flow before the evaporator so the system can absorb heat efficiently and deliver consistent cabin cooling.

Key Features

• Direct-fit A/C expansion valve for BMW Z4 applications
• Controls refrigerant flow entering the evaporator
• Supports stable evaporator performance during A/C operation
• Global Parts part number 3411524 for easy identification
• Cross-references UAC EX9735C for the same application

Detailed Description

This expansion valve is used in the air conditioning system to meter refrigerant before it reaches the evaporator. By reducing refrigerant pressure at the correct point in the cycle, it helps the evaporator absorb heat and maintain proper cooling performance. Global Parts 3411524 is listed for 2009-2016 BMW Z4 models and is a practical replacement when servicing the A/C flow control side of the system. This part cross-references UAC EX9735C for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Weak or inconsistent A/C outlet temperature
• Restricted refrigerant flow at the evaporator inlet
• Improper cooling performance after A/C service
• System performance issues tied to a worn expansion valve
• Service-related contamination in the refrigerant metering circuit

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2009-2016 BMW Z4, N/A. Verify the refrigerant system is properly evacuated, inspect related seals and lines, and confirm the replacement valve matches the original configuration before reassembly. Because the manufacturer recommends replacing the expansion valve/orifice tube during A/C service, this part is commonly installed during evaporator or compressor-related repairs.

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.
