A-Premium AC Compressor with Clutch for Mazda 3 2010–2013 2.0L — HS18N 5-Groove, PAG46 Prefilled

A-Premium Air Conditioner AC Compressor with Clutch is a direct-replacement HCC-HS18N compressor prefilled with PAG46 oil and fitted with a 5-groove pulley for Mazda 3 (2010–2013) 2.0L models.

This heavy-duty replacement compressor is built to match original equipment fit and function for Mazda 3 hatchback, sedan and 3 Sport models from 2010 through 2013 that use the HS18 compressor design. It arrives prefilled with approximately 180 ml of PAG46 lubricant (±20 ml tolerance) and includes the clutch assembly, so it’s ready for installation when the vehicle uses a 5-groove pulley configuration. Before ordering, verify your current compressor matches the HS18 style and five-groove pulley—this unit is not compatible with RS15/6-groove compressors.

How do I know this compressor fits my Mazda 3?

Fitment depends on compressor model and pulley groove count. This A-Premium unit is designed specifically for vehicles originally equipped with an HCC-HS18N compressor and a 5-groove pulley; it is not a fit for HCC-RS15 (6-groove) compressors.

• Compatible vehicles: Mazda 3 (2010–2013) L4 2.0L, including hatchback, sedan, and 3 Sport variants.
• Match your existing compressor’s external shape and mounting points to photos before purchasing.
• Compare part numbers: BBM461450A / BBM461450B / BBM461450C / 158381 when available.

What specifications and prefill details should I expect?

This compressor ships as a near-ready replacement with the clutch installed and lubricant precharged. The factory-specified lubricant is PAG46, filled to about 180 ml with a tolerance of ±20 ml, which streamlines installation and helps maintain correct oil levels in the AC system.

• Compressor type: HCC-HS18N.
• Pulley groove quantity: 5 grooves—confirm on your vehicle.
• Lubricant: PAG46, prefilled 180 ml (20 ml tolerance).
• Clutch: included and assembled for immediate installation.

Are there compatibility caveats or installation reminders?

Yes—this unit only fits HS18 compressors with a five-groove pulley. If your car uses an RS15 compressor with six grooves (often listed as 198331 or HCC-RS15), this A-Premium compressor will not fit. Always cross-check visual details and OE numbers to avoid returns.

• Not compatible with HCC-RS15 (6-groove) compressors or part number 198331.
• Use the vehicle fitment tools (garage) and compare photos to your existing compressor.
• Professional installation recommended to ensure correct refrigerant charge and leak-free connections.

Who is this for? If you own a Mazda 3 (2010–2013) with the HCC-HS18N compressor configuration and a 5-groove pulley, this A-Premium AC Compressor with clutch is a practical, OE-like replacement option. It suits DIY mechanics who can verify part differences before buying, and professional shops that need a ready-to-install compressor prefilled with PAG46 oil and supplied with the clutch. A-Premium backs the unit with a one-year unlimited-mileage guarantee for added confidence, but make sure to confirm fitment and installation requirements to avoid incompatibility with RS15/6-groove systems.
