all clear. Just opened the hood and looked at the code. It is 042200-0463.

Thanks! I understand this 88370-33020 is Lexus OE. 042200-0464 matches it? Now there is also DENSO DCP51012 in the game. My mind is blown. I see 042200-0464 is the cheapest somehow. And 88370-33020 and DCP51012 are more expensive 🤯

Hello, i am new here 🙂 I'm driving a Lexus IS300h (hybrid) from 2013 Couple of weeks ago the hybrid system light turned on and I visited the Lexus official dealer in my country. They investigated the issue and found out that AC compressor is faulty and needs replacement if i want my car to be cool in the summer. The compressor costs €2500 (about 2000 GBP) which sounds a lot. The part they say i need is 88370-33020 which i can find from the interweb for about 1000€/GBP which is still a lot. At the same time I find the part Denso 042200-0464 which the sellers say fits to my car, Used 042200-0464 costs around 100€/GBP. Engine type i have: 2AR-FSE Seems like this 88370-33020 is Lexus code and 042200-0464 manufacturer (Denso) code. Do you have experience - could this Denso 042200-0464 fit to my car or should i search for to the code dealership gave me? Seems like same AC compressor is used in another Lexus/Toyota cars. Thank you!
