I purchased this receiver drier to replace Volvo part No. 9187629, and from another online store.The threaded nipple on this receiver/drier has the thread cut wrong.The thread is nominally a 22mm x 1.75 thread. This means that in the male thread should measure around 21.7 mm maximum diameter. The thread on this Nissens part measured 22.12mm, with the 1.75 pitch.The result... the compressor suction hose nut seized twice when trying to thread it in, the second time deforming the seal surface. Not having another receiver/drier available, not being in stock at the nearby auto part stores, and with prices much higher than what I had paid for this one, I ended up having to re-cut the thread with a needle file.I then had to find a socket with the right dimensions to recover the shape the seal surface. I also had to cut the old receiver drier thread, in the shape of a thread tap, to be able to clean the aluminum that got stuck in the compressor suction hose nut threads.Additionally, the quick disconnect tube was at wrong angle, and would not fit the car properly. Again, I had to find the right size piece of steel to be able to bend the tube without damaging the tube or distorting the quick disconnect, so the receiver/drier would fit.I ended up spending close to 4 hours trying to fix this receiver drier defects, and the problems it created
