Product Information
Product Information
Air conditioning compressor.
Fits as the main air conditioning compressor in the heating & A/C system, typically mounted on the front of the engine with belt drive. Built to original equipment standards, this compressor delivers the correct displacement and operating pressure for the Porsche 928 climate system, ensuring reliable refrigerant circulation, stable pressures and consistent cabin cooling even in demanding conditions.

Fits:
Porsche 928 1980 - 1992*
* Will not fit 4.5L 928 years 1978-79

This compressor draws refrigerant from the evaporator, compresses it, and pumps it through the condenser so the system can expel heat and deliver cool, conditioned air to the interior. By maintaining the correct refrigerant flow and pressure, it ensures the A/C system can cool the cabin quickly and keep temperatures stable, supporting both comfort and demisting/defrost functions.

A worn or failing A/C compressor can cause poor or no cooling, excessive noise, seized internals, and contamination of the entire A/C system. Left unchecked, failure can damage other components like the condenser, expansion valve or receiver-drier. Replacing the compressor with an OE-match unit restores proper refrigerant circulation, protects the rest of the climate system, and brings back the comfort and refinement expected from a Porsche GT car - especially important on long trips and in warm climates.

When to replace
Consider replacing compressor if:
•  The A/C no longer blows cold air or cooling is very weak.
•  You hear grinding, rattling or squealing noises from the compressor area.
•  There are visible oil/refrigerant leaks from the compressor body or shaft seal.
•  The compressor clutch fails to engage, or cycles abnormally.
•  The system has suffered an internal compressor failure (metal contamination).
•  You’re performing a full A/C system restoration on a classic 928.

Air Conditioning Compressor Clutch Holding Tool – Secure and Damage-Free Clutch Removal for A/C Compressor Servicing

This air conditioning compressor clutch holding tool is designed to securely hold the compressor clutch in place during removal or servicing. Air conditioning compressors are fitted with a clutch assembly that must be held firmly while the retaining nut or bolt is removed. Attempting clutch removal without the correct holding tool risks damage to the pulley, clutch plate, compressor shaft, or surrounding components.

Whether performing routine service, replacing a worn clutch, diagnosing aircon failure, or rebuilding an A/C compressor, this tool ensures a fast, controlled and professional-level repair.

What This A/C Compressor Clutch Holding Tool Does

This specialist tool allows technicians to:

  • Secure the A/C compressor clutch during removal or installation
  • Prevent rotation of the clutch plate when loosening or tightening fasteners
  • Protect compressor internals from damage caused by incorrect tool use
  • Enable safe removal of worn or seized clutch assemblies
  • Support complete air conditioning compressor rebuilds
  • Ensure proper alignment and torque application during reassembly

Ideal for workshops and enthusiasts working on Porsche and other premium vehicle air conditioning systems.

Why A/C Compressor Clutches Fail

Common causes of compressor clutch wear or failure include:

  • Heat stress from engine bay temperatures
  • Bearing wear, causing noise or excessive vibration
  • Electromagnetic coil failure, resulting in intermittent engagement
  • Pulley misalignment, wearing clutch plates unevenly
  • Low refrigerant levels, forcing the clutch to cycle excessively
  • Contamination inside the A/C system
  • Age-related degradation of friction materials

When these symptoms occur, clutch removal is essential for repair or replacement—making a purpose-built holding tool indispensable.

Why This Tool Should Be Used or Replaced

Upgrading to a quality clutch holding tool ensures:

  • Damage-free clutch removal
  • Accurate and stable clutch locking
  • Reduced risk of bending, warping or scratching components
  • Efficient and safe A/C compressor servicing
  • Long-term reliability during repeated workshop use
  • Professional-grade results for both road and performance vehicles

Using improvised tools can damage the clutch or compressor—leading to an expensive replacement rather than a simple repair.
