2011 vs 2012/2013 parts compatibility

[JRWolff]

Hi All,

Does anyone know the difference / compatibility between the following components:

Radiator 92234040 vs 92456751
AC Compressor 92265299 vs 92276907
AC Evap Exp Valve Tube 92248986 vs 92285455

I see that there are different part numbers for the MY 2011 parts than the MY 2012/2013 parts. I recently bought a 2011 thinking all the parts interchanged between 2011-2013 but now not so sure. Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

In 2012 they changed the AC hose to incorporate a heat exchanger:

And the changed the mounting hardware on the radiator somewhere along the way.

Not sure on the AC compressor.

Thanks Steve,

Just out of curiosity, would a 2012 compressor and AC Evap Exp Valve hose work on a 2011 if they were replaced together, or would additional components be needed. Looks like 2011 compressors are still available, however the 2011 AC hose is no longer available. Seems like the wise thing to do would be to upgrade to the 2012+ components if they would work?

Any thoughts or experience?

Thanks,

John
