Fitment questions

Will an AC compressor from a 2013 Hyundai i20 fit my 2016 i20?

The i20 moved from its first generation (2008–2014) to the second generation (2015–2020), so a 2013 and a 2016 unit come from different generations entirely and are unlikely to be interchangeable. Engine code is the most reliable guide here — check your V5 or run a VIN check to find your exact code, then supply that to the breaker. Because this swap crosses a generation boundary, confirm fitment against your registration with the breaker before ordering.

Does the AC compressor differ between the i20 first generation (2008–2014) and the facelift models?

The first-generation i20 received a facelift around 2012, but for a mechanical component like the AC compressor, the engine code matters far more than whether your car is pre- or post-facelift. If the engine code is the same on both cars, fitment is more likely, but ancillary bracket and mounting changes can occur mid-production, so confirm against your registration with the breaker rather than assuming a facelift car automatically matches an earlier one.

Does it matter whether my i20 is a petrol or diesel when sourcing a used AC compressor?

Yes — fuel type directly affects which compressor was fitted, as petrol and diesel variants typically use different units even within the same generation. Always give the breaker your full engine code alongside fuel type, as this is more precise than fuel type alone and removes any ambiguity about which compressor your car left the factory with.

Will a manual gearbox i20 AC compressor fit an automatic i20 of the same year?

The AC compressor itself is driven by the engine rather than the gearbox, so gearbox type does not generally determine which compressor was fitted — engine code is the deciding factor. That said, confirm with the breaker against your registration, as ancillary routing and bracket configurations can occasionally differ between drivetrain setups.

Does the trim level affect which AC compressor I need — for example, Classic, SE, or Premium on the second-generation i20?

Trim level does not affect which AC compressor was fitted; Classic, SE, and Premium models with the same engine code will have used the same compressor. The trims differ in interior specification, infotainment, and cosmetic features rather than mechanical componentry, so don't reject a compressor sourced from a lower or higher trim car if the engine code matches your own.

I have a second-generation i20 (2015–2020) — can I use a compressor from any year within that generation?

Engine code is the key — if the donor car shares your exact engine code, fitment within the second-generation range is more likely, but ancillary and mounting details can change quietly at any point in a production run without a named facelift. Supply your registration and engine code to the breaker so they can check the specific donor unit against your car before you commit.
