Refrigerant R1234YF Water Content

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 23 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi S5, 2017 Audi A5 Quattro, 2016 Audi S5, 2016 Audi A5 Quattro, and 2015 Audi S5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Only very small amounts of water are soluble in liquid refrigerant. On the other hand, refrigerant vapor and water vapor mix in any ratio.
Any water in the refrigerant circuit will be entrained in droplet form once the dryer in the receiver or reservoir is saturated (absorbed approximately 7g of (0.25 oz) water). This water flows up to the expansion valve nozzle or restrictor and turns to ice, and the A/C system no longer has a cooling effect.
If the water present on the A/C compressor regulator valve turns to ice, it can lead to different complaints depending on the design of the A/C compressor (either the A/C system does not cool or it cools so strongly that the evaporator ices up).
Water destroys the A/C system, because it can form acids when combined with other contaminants at high pressures and temperatures.
