A/C Repair Service for Your Audi Q5 PHEV

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Audi Q5 PHEV A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know Audi vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2023 Audi. Bring your Audi Q5 PHEV to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2023 Audi Q5 PHEV’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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" is a machine that's run along parts of your Audi Q5 PHEV A/C system that can 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.

A/C Recharge for Audi Q5 PHEV

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2023 Audi Q5 PHEV, 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). Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Audi guidelines. 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 good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2023 Audi Q5 PHEV A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Audi Q5 PHEV A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Audi Q5 PHEV A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. 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. And smelly A/C in a 2023 Audi Q5 PHEV? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Q5 PHEV’s A/C!

2023 Audi Q5 PHEV A/C System FAQs

  • How can I make my Q5 PHEV air conditioner colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Q5 PHEV 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 causes A/C system leaks? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Q5 PHEV’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  •  Does the A/C in my Q5 PHEV use gas?  The air conditioning system in your Q5 PHEV 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 Q5 PHEV’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 Q5 PHEV creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Q5 PHEV’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Q5 PHEV’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
