Valeo Air Conditioning Compressor 12V Direct Mount DCS171C 716671

This Valeo air conditioning compressor is a 12V direct mount unit in the DCS171C series, part number 716671. It is listed with a pad fitting type, 6 groove pulley section, 122mm clutch diameter, and weighs 8kg, so it is intended for matching applications that use the same mounting and drive setup.

The compressor is supplied with PAG 46 compressor oil and is noted as internally variable with a mechanical control valve. It also uses a single harness plug. For vehicles that require an externally variable electronic control valve, a different unit is specified: CXZ123 with twin harness plugs.

Fitment support is specifically listed for Nissan X-Trail T31 2.5L built from 10/2007 to 12/2013. That model and date range should be checked carefully against the vehicle already in front of you, because compressor mounting style, pulley groove count, voltage, and control valve type all need to line up before installation.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, match the part number 716671, the DCS171C series, and the direct mount pad fitment to the compressor already fitted to the vehicle. The pulley section is 6 groove and the clutch diameter is 122mm, so those details should also be compared against the old unit or the vehicle’s existing air conditioning hardware.

This compressor is specified as 12V and internally variable with a mechanical control valve. That matters when comparing replacement parts, because the note states that for externally variable electronic control valve applications, CXZ123 with twin harness plugs is the alternative. The harness arrangement is therefore a key check, not a minor detail.

The listed fitment is for Nissan X-Trail T31 2.5L from 10/2007 to 12/2013. Even within that range, buyers should confirm the vehicle build details, the compressor label, and the original equipment number Z000422B wherever possible. Air conditioning parts can look similar across variants, but the control valve type and mounting pattern need to be correct for a proper match.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number 716671 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

For part number 716671, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a air conditioning compressor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include NISSAN X-TRAIL, NISSAN X-TRAIL 2007, NISSAN X-TRAIL 2008, NISSAN X-TRAIL 2009. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

Compatibility note: Confirm compatibility using part number 716671, DCS171C series, 12V direct mount pad fitment, 6 groove pulley section, and the listed Nissan X-Trail T31 2.5L 10/2007 - 12/2013 application before purchase.
