A/C Service for Audi Q3

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Audi Q3 A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Audi vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2019 Audi Q3 A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Audi Q3

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2019 Audi Q3 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 Q3 A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Q3 A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2019 Audi Q3 A/C system. We will also perform 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 ready to get back on the road. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2019 Audi Q3 A/C recharges.

Common Audi Q3 A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Audi Q3 A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might 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 can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2019 Audi Q3? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Q3’s A/C!

2019 Audi Q3 A/C System FAQs

  • Can I make my Q3 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.
  • What’s making my Q3 A/C put out warm air? An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? 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 Q3’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Q3 A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your Q3 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 can cause the A/C in my Q3 to smell 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 Q3 to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Q3’s A/C to work? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Q3 may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
