Overview - Evaporator Housing

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2018 Audi S6, 2018 Audi A6 Quattro, 2018 Audi A6, 2017 Audi S6, and 2017 Audi A6 Quattro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:

The following illustration shows an evaporator housing with a service evaporator as it was installed for refrigerant R134a. For vehicles with refrigerant R1234yf, separable connection points may no longer be in the vehicle interior. Therefore the evaporator -Item 20-  OVERVIEW - EVAPORATOR HOUSING only has permanently attached refrigerant pipes (-Item 2-  OVERVIEW - EVAPORATOR HOUSING and -Item 5-  OVERVIEW - EVAPORATOR HOUSING) for these vehicles. Refer to the Parts information.

  2. Refrigerant Pipe to Evaporator
    • Refrigerant pipes are permanently connected to the evaporator at the factory. If a repair is required on a vehicle with refrigerant R134a, an evaporator is sent that has the refrigerant pipes secured to the evaporator via a connection point. Refer to EVAPORATOR, REMOVING AND INSTALLING  and the Parts information.
    • Removing and Installing, Vehicles with Refrigerant R134a. Refer to EVAPORATOR, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
    • Not planned for vehicles with refrigerant R1234yf (and for vehicles with refrigerant R134a where the evaporator is not available with a connection point to the refrigerant pipes).
      NOTE:

      For vehicles with refrigerant R1234yf, the refrigerant pipes are permanently attached to the evaporator. Since there cannot be any separating points in the vehicle interior, there cannot be an evaporator installed here with separating points to the refrigerant pipes.

      For refrigerant R1234yf, there must not be any separable connection points in the refrigerant circuit in the vehicle interior (for example, separating points on the refrigerant lines to the evaporator). Therefore the heater and A/C unit must always be removed (with the evaporator housing) on these vehicles and the evaporator with the refrigerant lines must be completely replaced. Refer to the Parts information and EVAPORATOR HOUSING, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
