A/C Service for Audi S4

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Audi S4 A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Audi vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2014 Audi. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Audi S4

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2014 Audi S4’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. If we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Audi S4 A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

A/C Recharge for Audi S4

Let's say we repair your 2014 Audi S4 A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Then, they’ll use Audi’s specifications to evacuate the system. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2014 Audi S4 A/C recharges.

Common Audi S4 A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Audi S4 A/C problem you may encounter. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. If your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2014 Audi S4? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your S4’s A/C!

Questions About 2014 Audi S4 A/C Systems

  • How do I make my S4 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 S4 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 S4's A/C system.
  • Is my S4 A/C powered by gas? Your S4’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 S4’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? If the air conditioning in your S4 smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • Why does my S4’s A/C only work when the car is moving? Damaged or worn components in your S4’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
  • Where can I get my S4’s A/C repaired? Firestone Complete Auto Care has decades of experience inspecting and repairing S4 air conditioning systems. Schedule an A/C repair appointment at one of our locations near you today.
