A/C Compressor w/ PXC14 for Chevrolet Cruze 2016–2018 | 39067789 / 39072090 — 2026 Technical Specs, DTC Mapping & OEM Cross-Reference
Your model year alone will not buy the right A/C compressor for a 2016-2018 Chevrolet Cruze. Chevrolet sold two different Cruzes in 2016, and the refrigerant changed mid-generation. Order the PXC14 A/C compressor with clutch for the 2016-2018 Chevrolet Cruze, GM 39067789 after seven checks on the car.
The compressor is the pump that pressurizes refrigerant — the fluid that carries heat out of your cabin. A wrong unit will not bolt on, will not match your belt, or runs the wrong oil.
Why the model year alone fails on this car
Stop at the year and your order is a coin flip. Three traps sit inside these model years:
- Two different Cruzes wear the 2016 badge — the carryover Cruze Limited and the redesigned second-generation car.
- The refrigerant changed during production, so the build date decides R-134a versus R-1234yf.
- Marketplace spec text disagrees on clutch details, five grooves versus six.
The two cars never shared a parts catalog, and their compressors do not interchange.
The way out is to read the car instead of the year. Once your numbers are on paper, everything in the air conditioning and heating collection is easy to compare.
The seven specifications that decide fitment
| Specification | 2016-2018 Cruze 1.4L turbo | How to verify on your car |
|---|---|---|
| Engine / VIN digit 8 | M = 1.4L turbo LE2 (2016-2019 Cruze) | Decode your VIN and read the 8th character, not the badge |
| Belt drive | 5-rib belt (GM 55565302, Gates K050660) | Count the ribs on your belt; the pulley needs 5 grooves |
| Clutch coil | 12 V; about 3-5 Ω at rest (catalog band 2.9-6 Ω) | Multimeter across the coil terminals at the connector |
| Refrigerant | R-134a on earlier builds, R-1234yf on later builds | Read the underhood label; the service ports differ in size |
| System charge | ≈17 oz (0.48 kg) this generation; ≈20 oz the previous one | Underhood label or service data; charge by weight |
| Compressor oil | PAG 46 — GM 88901445 (R-134a), GM 19354657 (R-1234yf) | Match the oil to the label refrigerant; new units ship pre-charged |
| Compressor style | PXC14 — Sanden PX-family piston compressor with clutch | Match the style code, not the listing title |
Two rows do most of the filtering: the VIN digit proves which car you own, and the refrigerant row sets the oil and charge spec.
Read the VIN before you compare listings
The VIN is the 17-character serial stamped into every car. Character eight is the engine code, and here it decides:
- M = 1.4L turbo LE2, about 153 hp — your second-generation car, 2016 through 2019.
- B = 1.4L turbo LUV (2013-2015) and C = the 2012 LUJ — the previous generation.
- 9 = the 2011 engine.
- The older engines are port-injected, near 138 hp, and hang a different compressor.
That is why the compressor listed for the 2012-2015 Chevrolet Cruze sedan, 3913319 is correct for the older platform. It is the wrong part for yours — different mounting and clutch.
The 2016 Cruze Limited carries one of those older codes, not M. Its compressor belongs to the previous catalog.
The refrigerant split inside one model year
Read the refrigerant label under your hood before you order. The year badge will not tell you which system your Cruze carries.
Refrigerant is the pressurized fluid that moves heat out of the cabin. This generation switched from R-134a to the newer R-1234yf during production, not at a model-year boundary. Owners report R-134a on pre-2017 builds and R-1234yf on later 2017 builds.
The split changes real hardware:
- Different service ports — an R-134a gauge set physically cannot connect to an R-1234yf system.
- Different oil spec — both run PAG 46, but GM lists 88901445 for R-134a and 19354657 for R-1234yf.
- Different charge — about 17 oz (0.48 kg) here, about 20 oz on the previous generation.
Charge by weight, never by can-count. A half-can of guesswork shows up as weak vent temperatures.
Replacement compressors ship pre-charged with oil. The spec that matters is the one on your label.
Two five-minute gates: the clutch coil and the pulley
Measure the clutch coil before you blame the compressor. The clutch is the electromagnetic plate that connects the pulley to the pump. Three readings tell the story:
- About 3-5 Ω across the coil terminals at room temperature — healthy (12 V coils span 2.9-6 Ω).
- Far below about 2 Ω — shorted windings.
- Well above about 6 Ω — a coil failing open, the classic compressor that cuts out as the engine bay heats up.
One multimeter check at the connector settles what your eyes cannot. A clutch that looks perfect can still be electrically finished.
The pulley is the mechanical gate. Your 1.4L belt is a 5-rib belt — GM number 55565302, aftermarket Gates K050660 — so a correct pulley shows 5 grooves.
Listings for this application claim both five and six grooves, and pulley diameters get quoted from about 109 to 115 mm. Settle it on the car:
- Count the ribs on your belt.
- Count the grooves on your clutch pulley.
- Measure the pulley's outer diameter with a ruler or caliper.
A belt riding one groove out of line chews itself apart within weeks. Your own counts outrank any catalog field.
What the numbers mean once they match
With the checks satisfied, the numbering falls into place. GM's service kit 39176468 replaces 39067789 — the unit sold here with clutch.
Aftermarket cross-reference guides pair 39072090 with the same application. The shared PXC14 specification makes the numbers interchangeable, not the numbers themselves.
Want more depth? The complete guide to the Cruze PXC14 compressor and the OEM 39067790 guide for the 2016-2018 Cruze walk the same car from other angles.
Fill this in from the car, in this order, and send it with any quote request:
- The 8th VIN character — M is your 1.4L turbo LE2.
- The production date on the door jamb or underhood label.
- The refrigerant exactly as the label spells it.
- The rib count on the accessory belt.
- The groove count and measured diameter of the clutch pulley.
- The coil resistance at the connector — expect about 3-5 Ω.
- The oil type the label calls for.
Those answers either match the PXC14 spec or point to the car the part really belongs to.
Frequently asked questions
Will the 39067789 compressor fit my 2016 Chevrolet Cruze Limited?
Almost certainly not. The Limited is the previous-generation platform — if your 8th VIN character is not M, search the prior-generation compressor instead.
How do I know whether my 2017 Cruze uses R-134a or R-1234yf?
Read the underhood label and the build date, not the model year. R-134a shows on pre-2017 builds, and the different service port sizes back that up.
What resistance should the A/C compressor clutch coil read?
About 3-5 Ω at room temperature; 12 V coils span 2.9-6 Ω. Far below 2 Ω means shorted windings, well above 6 Ω means failing open.
Why do catalogs disagree on five versus six grooves?
Your 1.4L belt is a 5-rib belt, so a correct pulley shows 5 grooves — GM belt 55565302 and its equivalents are all five-rib. Some listing text is simply copied wrong.
Are 39067789 and 39072090 the same compressor?
They are cross-referenced for the same application, and GM's service kit 39176468 replaces 39067789. The shared PXC14 specification is what makes them interchangeable.
Can I use the 2012-2015 Cruze compressor on a 2016-2018 model?
No. The 3913319 unit serves the older platform with a different mounting, clutch, and pulley — your VIN digit or groove count rules the swap out.
What oil and refrigerant charge go back into the system?
PAG 46 to GM 88901445 for R-134a or GM 19354657 for R-1234yf, matched to your underhood label. This generation takes about 17 oz (0.48 kg) weighed in.
