Overview - Evaporator Housing

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 13 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi SQ5, 2017 Audi Q5, 2016 Audi SQ5, 2016 Audi Q5, and 2015 Audi SQ5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

-- Remove the A/C unit. Refer to HEATER AND A/C UNIT, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .

-- Remove the evaporator housing from the A/C unit. Refer to EVAPORATOR HOUSING, REMOVING AND INSTALLING  and to OVERVIEW - ATTACHMENTS FOR HEATER AND A/C UNIT AND AIR INTAKE HOUSING, "Basis" VERSION  ("Basis" A/C Unit, Disassembling and Assembling) or to OVERVIEW - ATTACHMENTS FOR HEATER AND A/C UNIT AND AIR INTAKE HOUSING, "Convenience" VERSION  ("Convenience" A/C Unit, Disassembling and Assembling).

NOTE:

From the start of production up to the changeover from MY 2012, evaporators approximately 40 mm wide (block depth) were installed (A/C unit part number "8K_ 820 005"). From MY 2012 as a running change, an evaporator with an approximately 50 mm width (block depth) is being installed depending on the vehicle version (A/C unit part number "8T_ 820 005"). Pay attention to the correct allocation of the expansion valve to the evaporator (there are different versions) .
