Nissens 5Q0 298 403 C A/C Receiver Drier Insert Desiccant Element

The Nissens 5Q0 298 403 C is an OE-quality A/C receiver drier insert — also known as a desiccant element or drier desiccant bag — designed as a direct-fit replacement for Volkswagen and Audi air conditioning systems. This integrated desiccant bag installs within the A/C condenser's receiver drier housing and is a key component in keeping the refrigerant circuit clean and moisture-free.

The receiver drier insert performs two essential functions: it absorbs harmful moisture from the refrigerant and oil, and it filters out particulate debris that can damage A/C components. By preventing water from circulating through the system, it helps guard against corrosive chemical reactions that can lead to premature failure of compressors, expansion valves, and other A/C parts.

Key Features:

• Manufactured and tested to OE standards for quality, performance, and installation fit
• Integrated desiccant bag design — absorbs moisture from refrigerant and oil
• Filters particles and debris from the A/C loop system
• All inlets/outlets capped to prevent moisture contamination prior to installation
• O-rings included for a proper seal
• Compatible with both R134a and R1234yf refrigerant systems
• Body diameter: 1.22 in | Body length: 8.66 in
