Detailed Description

The Universal Air EX10351C is an A/C expansion valve used to regulate refrigerant flow into the rear evaporator circuit. In Toyota Sienna and Toyota Highlander rear HVAC systems, this valve helps meter refrigerant so the evaporator can absorb heat efficiently and maintain stable rear cabin cooling. If you are servicing a rear air conditioning concern on a 2011-2020 Toyota Sienna or a 2008-2019 Toyota Highlander, EX10351C is the correct part number to verify against the vehicle’s rear block expansion valve application.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Weak or inconsistent rear A/C cooling
• Refrigerant flow restriction at the rear evaporator
• Temperature swings from a sticking expansion valve
• Rear HVAC performance loss in Toyota Sienna and Highlander models
• Service replacement for a failed rear block expansion valve

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the rear HVAC configuration before ordering and match the part number EX10351C to the vehicle’s rear block expansion valve setup. Recover refrigerant properly, inspect the surrounding A/C components for contamination or wear, and replace seals and related service parts as required by the repair procedure. After installation, evacuate and recharge the system to the specified refrigerant charge.
