Refrigerant Circuit Pipes And Hoses
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2024 Audi SQ5, 2024 Audi Q5 e, 2024 Audi Q5, 2023 Audi SQ5, and 2023 Audi Q5 e. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The mixture of refrigerant oil and refrigerant R134a corrodes certain metals (such as copper) and alloys, and dissolves some hose materials. Therefore use original replacement parts only.
Pipes and hoses are joined by threaded connections or by special connectors.
NOTE:
Note the tightening specifications for threaded connections and use the appropriate release tools for connectors.
