Description
Sanden SD6C12 1367 air conditioning compressor for Citroën Berlingo B9, C3 II, C3 Picasso, C4, C5 III, DS3 and Peugeot 207, 307, 308, 508, Partner III. This is a used part guaranteed to be functional. Photo is illustrative.
Product Overview
This Sanden SD6C12 1367 air conditioning compressor is a direct-fit replacement commonly used on a range of Citroën and Peugeot petrol and diesel models. The compressor is driven by the engine accessory belt and uses an electromagnetic clutch to engage the refrigeration circuit. Replacing a worn or failed compressor restores refrigerant circulation and cooling performance for the vehicle’s air conditioning system.
Key Benefits
- Direct fit for multiple Citroën and Peugeot applications listed below.
- Restores proper refrigerant compression and system pressure for effective cabin cooling.
- Supplied used but functional, inspected and ready for installation.
Compatibility
Typical fitment includes Citroën Berlingo B9, C3 II, C3 Picasso, C4, C5 III, DS3 and Peugeot 207, 307, 308, 508, Partner III. Always match part numbers listed in the Technical Information to confirm fitment for a specific vehicle model and engine variant.

Installation Recommendation
Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or an automotive workshop with air conditioning service equipment. Recommended steps include: properly evacuating the refrigerant, replacing the dryer/receiver and any vulnerable O-rings, flushing the system if contamination occurred, installing the compressor, performing a full vacuum and leak test, and recharging the system with the correct refrigerant and specified oil type and quantity. Refer to the vehicle service manual for the exact refrigerant type and oil capacity. Always follow standard safety procedures and disconnect the battery before starting mechanical work.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
Common causes of compressor failure include lubricant loss (insufficient oil), contamination from a failed clutch or internal wear, refrigerant leaks that lead to inadequate lubrication, seized bearings, or electrical/clutch faults preventing engagement. Contaminants circulating in the AC circuit (metal debris from a failing compressor) can lead to rapid failure of replacement components if the system is not thoroughly cleaned.
Signs You Need To Replace The Compressor
- Weak or no cooling from the air conditioning system.
- Unusual noises (grinding, rattling) from the compressor area.
- Compressor clutch not engaging while system is activated.
- Visible refrigerant or oil leaks near the compressor.
Practical Tips For Fitters and DIYers
- Verify all listed part numbers against the original compressor to ensure compatibility.
- Replace the receiver/drier and change oil when replacing the compressor to avoid contamination issues.
- Use proper personal protective equipment and AC service tools—refrigerant is under high pressure and requires certified handling.
Warranty And Condition
