Air conditioning system maintenance and repair

Why does Audi need air conditioning maintenance?

Regular air conditioning maintenance for Audi ensures comfort and system reliability. Manufacturers recommend complete refilling and air conditioning system inspection at least once a year. Constant vibrations, temperature fluctuations and road chemicals destroy seals, leading to refrigerant leaks and reduced cooling efficiency. Without maintenance, cooling deteriorates over time, compressor load increases and foreign odors appear. Timely diagnostics and prevention help avoid expensive breakdowns and extend the life of the climate system.

Common air conditioning system faults

Weak cooling or warm air from ventilation. Occurs due to low refrigerant pressure from leaks or system wear. Foreign noises. Loud clicks or humming when turning on the air conditioning often indicates compressor wear or failure and system depressurization. Unpleasant odor or mold. Dirt and condensate on the evaporator become a breeding ground for microbes – this causes a musty smell when turning on the air conditioning. Refrigerant leak. Oil traces are visible on hoses and connections, the system may freeze (ice on tubes), and the compressor overheats. Low freon level leads to complete loss of cold and risk of compressor failure. Window fogging. Dirty cabin filter impairs airflow and causes condensation on windows.

Audi climate system diagnostics

At Volkkarihuolto, comprehensive air conditioning diagnostics are performed for Audi. First, pressure and circuit tightness are checked: the system is vacuumed to detect even small refrigerant leaks. Specialists use electronic leak detectors and UV lamps for precise leak detection. Then electronic components are tested – sensors, relays and control unit – as well as compressor and clutch functionality. Based on diagnostic results, climate control error codes are revealed, allowing precise fault identification. This approach ensures we detect any defects before starting repairs, maintaining the "Audi climate control" system at the proper level.

What is included in air conditioning maintenance

1. Audi air conditioning refill: old refrigerant is completely removed, system is vacuumed and checked for leaks, then new freon is added with special oil. The amount of refrigerant and oil exactly matches manufacturer recommendations.

2. Cabin filter replacement: clean filter ensures normal airflow and prevents window fogging.

3. Tightness check: circuit pressurization with nitrogen and manometer control reveals unnoticeable defects. This stage allows localization and elimination of leaks before system refill.

4. Evaporator and drain cleaning: removing dust and dirt from heat exchanger and condensate drainage channels helps avoid odors and bacterial growth in the system.
