Sanden SD6V12 Air Conditioning Compressor – BMW

BMW Aircon Failures
Have you noticed that your compressor clutch doesn’t engage? Or that there is no cold air coming out – even AFTER refilling your aircon gas unit? If so, we may be able to help you! Sanden are a very well known brand of air conditioning compressors, and the Sanden SD6V12 is a popular aircon pump found fitted to various makes of BMW manufactured between 2000 and 2012. Unfortunately this aircon compressor has been known to commonly fail and we now carry genuine OEM and after market replacement units in stock.

Common Air Conditioning Pump Problems
Some of the common problems that have been highlighted with the BMW air-conditioning compressor unit are listed below –

• Electrical Faults
• Pressure Problems
• Unable to Refill Gas
• Compressor Clutch Not Engaging
• No Cold Air (Even After Re-filling Aircon Gas)
• Grinding Noise When Pressing Aircon Button
• Unable to Discharge Gas

If you have done your research, you will have found that to purchase a new compressor from a dealer will work out to be very costly. You also have the option to buy a second-hand used part which would be much cheaper initially to buy, but with only a 30-90 day limited warranty, and not knowing how many miles it has already covered or how well it was maintained by the previous owner, you would be waiting for this common failing part to become faulty again.
