WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi S3, 2017 Audi RS 3, 2017 Audi A3 Quattro, 2017 Audi A3, and 2016 Audi S3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Refrigerant circuit with expansion valve, receiver/dryer with or without A/C Clutch -N25- and A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- (with an A/C compressor regulated from the outside)

NOTE:

Connect the A/C service station. Refer to A/C SERVICE STATION ON REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT, CONNECTING .

If a malfunction occurs at only one evaporator in vehicles with two evaporators, check pressures in the refrigerant circuit; if they are OK, check line connection between malfunctioning evaporator and line connection end at distribution point of refrigerant lines (for constrictions or blockage). If no malfunction can be determined, empty the refrigerant circuit and refill with the specified refrigerant quantity. Then check the pressures and the A/C system cooling output again; if the complaint still exists, replace the expansion valve that is prematurely switched by the questioned evaporator. Refer to EXPANSION VALVE, REMOVING AND INSTALLING / COOLING OUTPUT, CHECKING, VEHICLES WITH AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM (WITH HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM) / COOLING OUTPUT, CHECKING / COOLING OUTPUT, CHECKING / (vehicle-specific repair information).

Refer to REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT WITH IGNITION SWITCHED ON, CHECKING PRESSURE
