Detailed Product Overview

Nissens 891572 is an OE-style A/C compressor designed for vehicles using R134A refrigerant and PAG 46 oil. The compressor uses a 10PA15C configuration with a serpentine pulley drive, 4-groove pulley layout, and 12-volt electrical operation. Nissens focuses on the compressor’s critical moving components, including the pulley, clutch, hub, bearing, and wobble plate, to support steady pumping performance and reduced vibration in daily use. For Acura NSX, Acura Integra, Acura EL, and Honda Civic models, this compressor is a direct replacement choice when the original unit has failed or is no longer maintaining proper system pressure.

Common A/C Problems This Part Can Address

• Warm air from the vents caused by compressor failure
• Loss of refrigerant pressure and weak cooling output
• Excessive compressor noise, vibration, or pulley wear
• Clutch engagement issues that prevent the A/C system from cycling correctly
• System performance problems after wear in the bearing or wobble plate

Installation Notes and Tips

Before installation, drain the shipping oil and refill the compressor with the correct PAG 46 oil amount for the vehicle system. Replace the receiver/drier or accumulator and evacuate the system before charging with R134A refrigerant. Verify connector style, pulley alignment, and belt routing before starting the engine. Always inspect the A/C system for contamination or leaks so the replacement compressor is not damaged by leftover debris or low refrigerant charge.
