Denso Air Conditioning Compressor 12V Direct Mount CXD6406

The Denso Air Conditioning Compressor 12V Direct Mount with part number CXD6406 is a pad-type compressor built for a direct mount application. It is specified with a 7 groove pulley section, a 110mm clutch diameter, and 12V operation, so those details should be checked carefully against the vehicle before ordering.

This unit is listed at 6.8kg and uses PAG46 oil with an oil capacity of 105ml. Those service details matter when comparing a replacement compressor, especially where the existing system has been opened or the compressor has failed and the correct oil type needs to be maintained.

The supplied application detail identifies BMW X5 E70 3.0L from 06/2010 to 08/2013. That is the only explicit fitment detail provided here, so it should be treated as the primary compatibility reference along with the part number CXD6406 and the Denso unit make.

A one year warranty is listed for this compressor. As with any air conditioning component, correct identification by part number, mount type, pulley section, and clutch size remains essential before purchase or installation.

Application and Buying Notes

Before buying, match the compressor against the vehicle application and the physical details listed here: Denso CXD6406, 12V, direct mount, pad fitting, 7 groove pulley, and 110mm clutch diameter. If any of those points differ from the unit being replaced, the compressor may not be the correct match even if the vehicle is similar.

The only explicitly listed vehicle application is BMW X5 E70 3.0L from 06/2010 to 08/2013. If you are working on another BMW model, or another X5 build period, confirm the compressor by part number and mount details rather than assuming interchangeability.

Air conditioning compressors are often compared by shape alone, but the practical checks are the mounting style, pulley groove count, clutch diameter, and vehicle application. Those are the details most useful for confirming whether CXD6406 is the right part for the job.

If the original compressor is unavailable or unreadable, use the Denso brand, CXD6406 part number, and the listed BMW X5 E70 3.0L application as the main identification points. That reduces the risk of ordering a similar-looking compressor with the wrong mounting or pulley configuration.

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 CXD6406 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 CXD6406, 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.

Compatibility note: Confirm compatibility using the part number CXD6406, the Denso brand, and the listed BMW X5 E70 3.0L application from 06/2010 to 08/2013. Also check the direct mount, pad fitting, 7 groove pulley, and 110mm clutch diameter against the compressor being replaced.
