A/C Failing on BMW, Audi, or VW? Replace the CVC Solenoid for $54.
The A/C compressor control valve (solenoid) for Delphi CVC compressors (fitted to BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, and Skoda) regulates compressor displacement based on cooling demand. OEM cross-references include 1K0820859F, 5N0820803A, 1K0820803G/L/N/P/Q. A failed valve causes weak cooling, erratic A/C operation, or total failure.
What's Included
- 1× A/C compressor control solenoid valve (Delphi CVC)
- O-ring seal(s)
Why Replace?
- Restores A/C Cooling: Worn solenoid reduces compressor stroke, cutting refrigerant flow and cooling output.
- Stops Erratic Cycling: Faulty valve causes rapid compressor on/off cycling.
- Saves $200+ vs Compressor: Delphi CVC compressor $250+; solenoid replacement costs $54.
- 30-Minute Install: Remove front cover, swap solenoid, reassemble.

About This Control Valve
Delphi CVC A/C compressor control solenoid (OEM 1K0820859F, also 5N0820803A, 1K0820803G, 1K0820803L, 1K0820803N, 1K0820803P, 1K0820803Q) fits the Delphi variable-displacement compressors used widely across BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, and Skoda platforms. The CVC solenoid controls refrigerant flow by varying compressor displacement — failure is the most common A/C fault on these vehicles before compressor seizure.
