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 lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Audi Q5 Sportback A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We’ve got experience with Audi vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2021 Audi. Steer your Audi Q5 Sportback to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2021 Audi Q5 Sportback 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 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Audi Q5 Sportback A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

A/C Recharge for Audi Q5 Sportback

Let's say we repair your 2021 Audi Q5 Sportback 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. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2021 Audi Q5 Sportback A/C recharges.

Other Audi Q5 Sportback A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Audi Q5 Sportback A/C problem you may encounter. 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2021 Audi Q5 Sportback? 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. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Q5 Sportback.

Questions About 2021 Audi Q5 Sportback A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Q5 Sportback air conditioner 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 do I get hot air from my Q5 Sportback A/C? 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 can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Q5 Sportback’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.
  • Is my Q5 Sportback A/C powered by gas?  The air conditioning system in your Q5 Sportback 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 Q5 Sportback 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 Q5 Sportback to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my Q5 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 Q5 Sportback may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
