Difficult to remove the old valve ,once fitted fixed the air on great cold air now.this part although easy to replace you will need to have the system emptied and refilled once fitted by a professional garage.

***READ THE VENDOR WRITE-UP ***I used a fancy auto computer tool by Autel that showed I had some sort of "ground" issue with the AC unit. After consulting Dr Google many people confirmed that this issue is caused by an OEM-installed control solenoid valve that has a high failure rate. One of the form posters suggested the RKX replacement and others suggested it was superior to the OEM replacement.It is vital to know what make/model of compressor you have as described by them that the auto maker uses several different brands of compressor. Once I snaked a camera scope down into the inner bowels of my engine compartment and got a photo of the make/model I was able to order the correct replacement part. I took it to a wonderful auto repair shop in my town to evac the R134a out of the system. I took the car back home and ran it up onto some ramps and dropped the plastic under shield from the car. The compressor was right there and squeezed the ring clamp and removed the clip. The device came out after some gentle coaxing breaking the vacuum caused by the evac. I coated the rings with some special magical oil loaned to me by the mechanic designed for this purpose and slipped both the part, ring clip, and wires back on, and took the car back to the mechanic. They tested it for vacuum and then charged it back up. In the little time that I have had the car back, it was blowing cold air once again.I must stress that I do not like to work on cars but am motivated by the possibility of saving $1000+ in labor costs for something that I am able to do at home. If this had failed any of the tests it would have gone back to the shop for a "proper" repair. So far it is working great.... knock on Formica...

Had my AC reclaimed by the local AC shop, installed the part in under 15 min on my 2012 B7 Passat and had the system recharged the next day for $120.My AC now feels new again, no longer takes ages to get the cabin down to temp on days over 25c.Was compatible with the 1K0820808B part number.Saved me over $1000 for a new compressor.

Product is good, however Amazon Prime with international expedited postage does not work, 4 days from US and through customs in Melbourne, this is good but another 18 days from Melbourne to Perth with Fastway couriers who are known to be the worst and slowest couriers in Australia, this completely negates using Amazon Prime until they get the courier sorted.

UPDATE: Installed almost 3 months ago and still going strong as we enter July Florida heat & humidity. Wife is happy, happy, happy.Arrived on-time and worked like a charm. Wife and I are happy to have cold A/C again. A/C worked intermittently (blowing warm air way more often than cold) before replacement with the low side pressure staying around 65 psi and the high side just above 110 psi most of the time. Now getting 35 psi on the low side and 165 psi on the high side. Thermometer registering 55 degrees F while parked at idle and a chilly 48 degrees while driving. This is not really a DIY job. If you are not familiar with automotive A/C and don't have the proper tools (gauges/evacuation pump/snap ring pliers/etc.) do yourself a favor and find a shop that is willing to do the replacement for labor charge + refrigerant. You'll likely have to be a little persistent and agree to not have the work warranted once you find a shop that doesn't insist on replacing the entire compressor unit but if you are certain the valve is the issue your probably looking at a $150-200 (including the price of this valve) vs $600+ for a compressor replacement. If you have the tools and the knowledge this could fix your A/C for less than $50. As mentioned by the vendor and others - this is for the valve held in with a snap ring and NOT the bolt.
