BTR5750 OEM A/C Compressor V8 EFI Defender Discovery Classic
BTR5750 is the OEM air conditioning compressor assembly for the V8 EFI Land Rovers, the belt driven pump that puts the refrigerant under pressure and makes the whole air conditioning system work. Without it the vents blow warm no matter what the rest of the system is doing. This is a part made by the original equipment manufacturer rather than a generic replacement.
Land Rover catalogues it for the 4.0 liter V8 EFI Defender, for the V8 EFI Discovery 1 on the serpentine belt drive, and for the V8 EFI Range Rover Classic from 1992 to 1994. In every case it is the compressor for cars that left the factory with air conditioning fitted, so a car that never had the option will need more than just this part.
Worth knowing before you buy. Land Rover has made BTR5750 obsolete and there is no replacement number, which is the position a lot of V8 EFI air conditioning parts are now in. That makes a good compressor for these cars progressively harder to find rather than easier, and it is why the ones still in circulation are worth holding onto.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Land Rovers does it fit?
The V8 EFI Defender, the V8 EFI Discovery 1 with the serpentine belt drive, and the V8 EFI Range Rover Classic from 1992 to 1994, in each case cars built with factory air conditioning.
Is this still available from Land Rover?
No. Land Rover has made BTR5750 obsolete with no superseding number, so what is in circulation is what is left.
Does it come charged or with oil in it?
Confirm before fitting. Compressors ship in different states depending on the supplier, and the system needs the correct oil charge for the compressor you are installing.
