Product Details

Mando OE compressors are supplied for Hyundai and Kia applications and are built to match factory requirements for refrigerant flow and system operation. This 10A1097 compressor pressurizes refrigerant before it moves through the condenser and the rest of the A/C system, supporting normal cold-air delivery in the cabin.

Part number 10A1097 also cross-references Kia 97701-1U250 for the same application.
