Behr 31449329 Rear A/C Evaporator Core

The Behr 31449329 is a rear-mounted air conditioning evaporator core designed as a genuine OEM replacement component. This evaporator core is a critical component of the vehicle's climate control system, responsible for extracting heat from the cabin air and enabling cold air production for passenger comfort.

Key Features:

• OEM-quality aluminum plate and fin evaporator core construction
• Rear position mounting for multi-zone climate systems
• Optimized refrigerant flow design for efficient heat exchange
• Includes necessary gaskets, O-rings, and seals for proper installation
• Direct replacement for OEM part number 31369436
• Cross-references to Behr part number AE 162 000P (AE162000P)

The evaporator core works by allowing refrigerant to pass through its coils, causing them to become extremely cold. As warm cabin air flows over the cold coils, heat is extracted and the cooled air is distributed through the ventilation system. This component is located within the HVAC housing and requires significant disassembly for replacement, making quality and proper fitment essential for long-term reliability.
