Mando 10A1568 A/C Compressor

Mando OE A/C Compressor for Kia Forte

The Mando 10A1568 is a New Original Equipment A/C compressor built for 2019-2021 Kia Forte applications. It pressurizes refrigerant for the vehicle’s air conditioning system, helping restore cold cabin air when the original compressor is worn, leaking, or no longer building pressure.

This compressor is specified with a 6-groove pulley and a VS-14 compressor type, and it is listed for R-134A or R-1234yf refrigerant systems. Mando’s OE-focused product line is built around factory-style replacement parts for Hyundai and Kia vehicles, with conventional compressors supplied pre-filled with refrigerant oil to factory specifications.

Detailed Description

The Mando 10A1568 A/C compressor is a direct replacement for Kia Forte models from 2019 through 2021. As the main pumping component in the air conditioning system, it compresses refrigerant before sending it to the condenser, where heat is removed and the refrigerant continues through the rest of the HVAC circuit. When the compressor fails, refrigerant leaks, or system pressure drops, cabin cooling performance is reduced or lost. This part cross-references Kia 97701M7000 for the same application.

Use this compressor when servicing a 2019-2021 Kia Forte A/C system that requires an OE-style replacement with the correct pulley configuration and refrigerant compatibility. The 10A1568 part number is also useful for matching the correct compressor during repair verification and catalog lookup.

What It Helps Fix

• No cold air from the A/C vents
• Low refrigerant pressure caused by compressor wear or leakage
• Compressor noise, binding, or poor engagement
• Weak cooling performance in the Kia Forte HVAC system
• Failure of the original compressor to circulate refrigerant properly

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm refrigerant system type, pulley groove count, and compressor type before installation. Verify that the replacement matches the vehicle’s original A/C configuration for 2019-2021 Kia Forte applications. Follow factory service procedures for evacuation, oil balance, and system recharge to protect the compressor and restore proper operation.

Quality Assurance

Mando supplies OE factory A/C compressors for Hyundai and Kia applications, with conventional compressors pre-filled with refrigerant oil to exact factory specifications. The 10A1568 is part of Mando’s New Original Equipment line, built for factory-style replacement in the vehicle’s original HVAC system.
