Refrigerant R134A Capacities: Notes

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.

Refer to the appropriate FLUID CAPACITY TABLE information.

NOTE:

When charging the high-pressure side of refrigerant circuits, always use maximum amount of refrigerant (some of the refrigerant remains in the charging hoses).

The specified capacities for refrigerant R134a apply if no other different specifications given for the "S" and "RS".

Make sure the A/C Service Station is standing at the same level as the vehicle (maximum difference: 50 cm) when charging the refrigerant circuit. If a difference in height is large enough, a difference between the amount of refrigerant displayed on the service station and amount actually filled in the circuit will result (depending on the version of the A/C Service Station). The ability of the A/C Service Station to perform an exact filling can change.

For compressor allocation ("Zexel / Valeo", "Sanden" or "Denso / Nippondenso"). Refer to OVERVIEW - REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT (Vehicle-specific repair information).

Refrigerant circuits converted from R12 to R134a are to be filled with the quantity indicated in the repair information "Air conditioner with refrigerant R12". (This repair information is only available in hard copy).

Beginning from production year 2006, the name of the "Zexel" A/C compressor was changed from "Zexel" to "Valeo".
