The A/C compressor on the Nissan Altima is the belt-driven, clutch-equipped pump that compresses and circulates the refrigerant so the system can cool the cabin. It uses R-134a with PAG oil and has an aluminum housing. This is a used compressor, clutch tested where possible before it ships.
The key note is fitment. The live title carries no year, and the compatibility field reads '1993 Nissan Altima', which is almost certainly auto-filled. Altima compressors differ by generation (early four-cylinder cars like the KA24DE and QR25DE versus later V6 cars with the VQ35), so do not rely on a single year. Confirm your exact year, generation, and engine by VIN before ordering. For a specific year, there is also a year-dated Altima compressor listing on the store.
