How do I make my S4 air conditioning 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.

Why is my S4 A/C blowing hot 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 S4’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.

Is my S4 A/C powered by gas?

The air conditioning system in your S4 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 S4 to smell like vinegar?

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 S4 creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.

What is causing my S4’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 S4 may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.

Audi S4 A/C Repair

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 wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Audi S4?" 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 2022 Audi. Bring your Audi S4 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2022 Audi S4’s A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and 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.” 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 there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

S4 A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2022 Audi S4 A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Audi guidelines. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2022 Audi S4 A/C recharges.

Common Audi S4 A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Audi S4 A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. 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. 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. And smelly A/C in a 2022 Audi S4? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. 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 S4’s A/C!
