A/C Service for Audi A3 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. “Who can fix my Audi A3 Quattro A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Audi vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2015 Audi A3 Quattro A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Audi A3 Quattro

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2015 Audi A3 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 think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Audi A3 Quattro A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

A3 Quattro A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2015 Audi A3 Quattro, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll use Audi’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2015 Audi A3 Quattro A/C recharges.

Other Audi A3 Quattro A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Audi A3 Quattro A/C problem you may encounter. Another common A/C problem is 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 suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2015 Audi A3 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. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your A3 Quattro — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2015 Audi A3 Quattro A/C Systems

  • How do I make my A3 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 A3 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? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your A3 Quattro’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my A3 Quattro A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your A3 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.
  • My A3 Quattro’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? If the air conditioning in your A3 Quattro smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my A3 Quattro’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your A3 Quattro is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
