A/C Service for Audi A5 Sportback

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Audi A5 Sportback?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Audi vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2019 Audi A5 Sportback A/C systems. Bring your Audi A5 Sportback to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2019 Audi A5 Sportback’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Audi A5 Sportback A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

A/C Recharge for Audi A5 Sportback

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2019 Audi A5 Sportback, 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 once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re all set. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2019 Audi A5 Sportback A/C recharges.

Other Audi A5 Sportback A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Audi A5 Sportback A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might 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 2019 Audi A5 Sportback? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your A5 Sportback — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 2019 Audi A5 Sportback A/C Systems

  • How can I make my A5 Sportback air conditioner 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.
  • Why do I get hot air from my A5 Sportback A/C? 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.
  • What can cause an A/C system 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 A5 Sportback's A/C system.
  • Does my A5 Sportback A/C use gas? Your A5 Sportback’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • My A5 Sportback’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your A5 Sportback creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my A5 Sportback’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your A5 Sportback may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
