A/C Repair Service for Your Audi 4000 Quattro

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat.

We’ve got experience with Audi vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1986 Audi 4000 Quattro A/C systems. Steer your Audi 4000 Quattro to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1986 Audi 4000 Quattro A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Audi 4000 Quattro A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

4000 Quattro A/C Recharge

While your 1986 Audi 4000 Quattro’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Audi's recommendations. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you're ready to get back on the road. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1986 Audi 4000 Quattro A/C recharges.

Common Audi 4000 Quattro A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Audi 4000 Quattro A/C problem you may encounter. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. And smelly A/C in a 1986 Audi 4000 Quattro? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your 4000 Quattro.

1986 Audi 4000 Quattro A/C System FAQs

  • How can I make my 4000 Quattro air conditioner colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my 4000 Quattro A/C blowing hot air? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your 4000 Quattro's A/C system.
  • Does my 4000 Quattro A/C use gas? While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your 4000 Quattro.
  • Why does the A/C in my 4000 Quattro smell like vinegar? It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your 4000 Quattro to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my 4000 Quattro’s A/C only work when the car is moving? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your 4000 Quattro’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
