What is the correct part number for an A/C Compressor for a 2015 Honda Fit LX?
I ordered a part from Amazon that was supposed to fit but the Honda dealership service center said it's a slightly different part number and that they couldn't install it because it wouldn't fit properly (I don't think they actually removed the old compressor). They said the part number on the box appeared correct but the one on the unit was incorrect.
They ended up putting my belt back on and telling me to contact the company to get the correct part.
The part number on the unit for the one I purchased is: 10SRE11C:

I contacted the company (BuyAutoParts) and they said that part should be a match for my car and if I exchanged it I would just be sent the same compressor.
Now I'm not sure if I should buy the part elsewhere to be sure it's the correct part or if Honda is just seeing a non-OEM P/N and assuming it won't fit properly.
The part number I found on HondaPartsNow.com is 38810-5R7-A01 and it says "Replaced by: 38810-5R7-A02"
Does anyone have any further info on this? Is it possible my 2015 Fit had the compressor from the previous gen fit before they moved to a different compressor? Even weirder is the one Amazon review on the compressor I purchased said it was a perfect fit for a 2015 Honda Fit.
You can check out ebay pics from junk Fits and see if the used ones match yours. I'm on ebay a lot and was curious and going by just the Denso main part #s on the compressor and clutch(mfg?) they match yours except the ones i saw had -300 on the clutch and yours has -400. I'm thinking that's not a big deal maybe an upgrade? It says on the box the part number is for both together. Since they are in the business of selling jacked up price parts also, I'm wondering the reason they won't put it on is because you didn't buy from Honda? You bought the same oe parts from a third party and it is now considered "aftermarket" by Honda? Maybe you will need to find someone else to install it?
