PHOBOOS A/C Compressor with clutch is a direct-replacement, OE-matched air conditioning compressor engineered to restore cold airflow for 1.6L Kia and Hyundai models without modification.

This PHOBOOS compressor (Ref. CO-29273C) is built to match original equipment fit and function for select 1.6L engines, arriving prefilled with PAG46 oil and fitted with a 6-groove pulley and VS14 compressor design. It replaces common OEM references and supports R-134a refrigerant—making it a straightforward swap for technicians and DIYers who need reliable cooling performance and low vibration operation.

Which vehicles and engines will this compressor fit?

This unit is designed specifically for 1.6L engines—verify fitment before ordering. It fits Kia Soul (2014–2019) L4 1.6L, Kia Soul Turbocharged 2017–2019 L4 1.6L, Kia Forte5 and Forte Koup (2014–2016) with automatic A/C, and Hyundai Elantra 2017 L4 1.6L (to 09/12/2016).

  • Only compatible with 1.6L engines; not for other displacements.
  • Compatible with Kia Forte5 and Forte Koup models with automatic A/C; not for Kia Forte sedan.
  • Confirm using vehicle fitment tools or compare part images/specs to your existing unit.

How does the PHOBOOS compressor perform under driving conditions?

Engineered for cooling efficiency and quiet operation, this compressor delivers strong cooling capacity while keeping noise and vibration low. It’s rated to perform with typical R-134a systems and operates on 12V electrical systems common to the listed vehicles.

  • Compressor type: VS14—designed for consistent refrigerant flow.
  • Cooling output optimized for passenger comfort in high-heat conditions.
  • Noise level engineered below 70 dB for reduced cabin sound.

What are the key specifications and installation details?

The PHOBOOS compressor arrives prefilled with approximately 150 mL (±20 mL) PAG46 oil and uses a 6-groove pulley with a 124 mm diameter for direct bolt-on replacement. Voltage is 12V and the unit is designed for R-134a refrigerant systems.

  • Pulley: 6 grooves, 124 mm diameter for belt compatibility.
  • Oil: PAG46 precharged to factory-approximate level (150 mL ±20 mL).
  • Part cross-references include multiple OEM numbers—compare images and specs to your old compressor.

What support and warranty come with the purchase?

PHOBOOS provides a 12-month unlimited mileage warranty on this compressor, and the OE-matched design reduces the need for additional parts or modifications. Replacement is intended to be a direct swap, but follow professional installation guidelines and verify compatibility first.

  • 12-month unlimited mileage warranty for peace of mind.
  • OE-style mounting and electrical connections for direct fit.
  • Prefilled oil and labeled refrigerant type for faster installation prep.

Who is this for: This compressor is ideal for vehicle owners, mechanics, and fleet technicians servicing Kia Soul, Kia Forte5, Kia Forte Koup or Hyundai Elantra models that use the 1.6L engine and R-134a refrigerant. Choose this unit when you need a like-for-like replacement that minimizes downtime, maintains factory-like cooling performance, and includes warranty coverage. Always confirm engine size and A/C system type before purchase to ensure proper fitment.
