Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Compressor and pulley (for 2az-fe)
Components

Removal
- Discharge refrigerant from
refrigeration system (see page ac-172)
- Disconnect cable from negative battery
terminal
Caution:
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the
cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to
prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
- Disconnect no. 1 Cooler refrigerant suction hose

- Remove the bolt and disconnect the cooler
refrigerant suction hose from the cooler compressor.
- Remove the o-ring from the cooler refrigerant
suction hose.
Notice:
Seal the openings of the disconnected parts
using vinyl tape to prevent moisture and foreign
matter from entering them.
- Disconnect no. 1 Cooler refrigerant discharge hose

- Remove the bolt and disconnect the cooler
refrigerant discharge hose from the cooler
compressor.
- Remove the o-ring from the cooler refrigerant
discharge hose.
Notice:
Seal the openings of the disconnected parts
using vinyl tape to prevent moisture and foreign
matter from entering them.
- Remove no. 1 Engine under cover
- Remove fan and generator v belt (see page
em-6)
- Remove cooler compressor assembly

- Disconnect the connector.
- W/o stud bolt:
remove the 4 bolts and cooler compressor.
- W/ stud bolt:
remove the 3 bolts, nut and cooler compressor.
Installation
- Adjust adjust compressor oil
- When replacing the compressor and magnetic
clutch with a new one, gradually discharge the
refrigerant gas from the service valve, and drain the
following amount of oil from the new compressor
and magnetic clutch before installation.
Standard:
(oil capacity inside the new compressor and
magnetic clutch: 130 + 15 cc (4.6 + 0.51 Fl.Oz.) )
-(Remaining oil amount in the removed
compressor and magnetic clutch) = (oil
amount to be removed from the new
compressor when replacing)
Notice:
- When checking the compressor oil level,
observe the precautions on the cooler
removal/installation.
- If a new compressor and magnetic clutch is
installed without removing some oil
remaining in the pipes of the vehicle, the oil
amount will be too large. This prevents heat
exchange in the refrigerant cycle and causes
refrigerant failure.
- If the volume of oil remaining in the removed
compressor and magnetic clutch is too small,
check for oil leakage.
- Be sure to use nd-oil 8 or equivalent for
compressor oil.
- Install cooler compressor assembly

- W/o stud bolt:
install the cooler compressor with the 4 bolts.
Torque: 24.5 N*m (250 kgf*cm, 18 ft.*Lbf)
Notice:
Tighten the bolts in the order shown in the
illustration to install the cooler compressor.
- W/ stud bolt:
install the cooler compressor with the 3 bolts and
nut.
Torque: 24.5 N*m (250 kgf*cm, 18 ft.*Lbf)
Notice:
Tighten the bolts in the order shown in the
illustration to install the cooler compressor.
- Connect the connector.
- Install no. 1 Cooler refrigerant discharge hose

- Remove the attached vinyl tape from the hose.
- Sufficiently apply compressor oil to a new o-ring
and the fitting surface of the cooler compressor.
Compressor oil:
nd-oil 8 or equivalent
- Install the o-ring on the cooler refrigerant discharge
hose.
- Install the cooler refrigerant discharge hose on the
cooler compressor with the bolt.
Torque: 9.8 N*m (100 kgf*cm, 7 ft.*Lbf)
- Install no. 1 Cooler refrigerant suction hose

- Remove the attached vinyl tape from the hose.
- Sufficiently apply compressor oil to a new o-ring
and the fitting surface of the cooler compressor.
Compressor oil:
nd-oil 8 or equivalent
- Install the o-ring on the cooler refrigerant suction
hose.
- Install the cooler refrigerant suction hose on the
cooler compressor with the bolt.
Torque: 9.8 N*m (100 kgf*cm, 7 ft.*Lbf)
- Install fan and generator v belt (see page
em-7)
- Install no. 1 Engine under cover
- Connect cable to negative battery
terminal
- Charge refrigerant (see page ac-172)
- Warm up engine (see page ac-173)
- Check for leakage of refrigerant (see
page ac-173)
