A/C Repair Service for Your Audi 80 Quattro

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Audi 80 Quattro A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know our way around Audi vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1991 Audi. Bring your Audi 80 Quattro to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1991 Audi 80 Quattro A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. 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. A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Audi 80 Quattro A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

80 Quattro A/C Recharge

While your 1991 Audi 80 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. Then, they’ll use Audi’s specifications to evacuate the system. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1991 Audi 80 Quattro A/C recharges.

Other Audi 80 Quattro A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Audi 80 Quattro A/C problem you may encounter. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1991 Audi 80 Quattro? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your 80 Quattro — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 1991 Audi 80 Quattro A/C Systems

  • How do I make my 80 Quattro air conditioning colder? Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • What’s making my 80 Quattro A/C put out warm air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • 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 80 Quattro's A/C system.
  • Is my 80 Quattro A/C powered by gas?  The air conditioning system in your 80 Quattro does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • Why does my 80 Quattro have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? 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 80 Quattro to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my 80 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 80 Quattro’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
