It slows refrigerant before the evaporator so the system can use cooling capacity efficiently. Fits 2003-2006 Kia Sorento, making it a direct-fit service part for Sorento A/C repairs.

Key Features

• Expansion valve/orifice tube style A/C flow restrictor
• Controls refrigerant delivery before the evaporator
• Supports efficient evaporator cooling performance
• Recommended replacement during A/C system service
• Compatible with 2003-2006 Kia Sorento applications

Detailed Description

This Global Parts 3411772 expansion valve is built for HVAC systems that need precise refrigerant metering at the evaporator inlet. By reducing refrigerant flow at the correct point in the circuit, it helps the A/C system maintain proper cooling behavior. Fits 2003-2006 Kia Sorento, and the part number 3411772 is also a useful reference when matching service parts for the same application. This part cross-references Four Seasons 39227 for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Weak or inconsistent cabin cooling
• Restricted refrigerant flow at the evaporator
• A/C service after compressor or system repairs
• Replacement of a worn expansion valve during HVAC maintenance
• Restoring proper refrigerant metering in a Kia Sorento A/C system

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle is a 2003-2006 Kia Sorento before ordering. Replace the expansion valve/orifice tube during A/C service when the system is opened, and follow proper evacuation, leak-check, and recharge procedures after installation. Confirm refrigerant system cleanliness and inspect related components before returning the vehicle to service.

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.
