A/C Service for Audi A6 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. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Audi A6 Quattro?" Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Audi vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2011 Audi A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Audi A6 Quattro

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2011 Audi A6 Quattro A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Audi A6 Quattro A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

Recharge the A/C in Your A6 Quattro

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2011 Audi A6 Quattro, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Next, they will evacuate the system according to Audi's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2011 Audi A6 Quattro A/C recharges.

Other Audi A6 Quattro A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Audi A6 Quattro A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Typical A/C problems also 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 can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 2011 Audi A6 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. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your A6 Quattro.

2011 Audi A6 Quattro A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my A6 Quattro air conditioning colder? For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why is my A6 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.
  • 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 A6 Quattro's A/C system.
  • Does my A6 Quattro A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your A6 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.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my A6 Quattro smells like vinegar? Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your A6 Quattro to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my A6 Quattro’s A/C to work? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your A6 Quattro is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
