Capacities For AUDI A2 (8Z_) From My 2001

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2023 Audi SQ8, 2023 Audi RS Q8, and 2023 Audi Q8. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Features of the refrigerant system:

Vehicle type Production period Capacity in grams Differing features of this refrigerant circuit
Audi A2 From 06/2000 to 07/2001 525 + / - 25
  • Yellow colored restrictor
  • Condenser with part number 8Z0 260 401 (403) and index "B" or "C"
  From 07/2001 500 + / - 25
  • Red colored restrictor
  • Condenser part number 8Z0 260 401 (403) with index "D".
NOTE:

Replacement restrictors with different holes are available (yellow colored 1.54 mm, red colored 1.42 mm).

Depending on manufacturer, color of red restrictor may tend more towards orange.

To avoid altering the cooling output of the air conditioner, restrictors with the same hole diameter must only be installed.

A restrictor with a smaller hole (red colored) and a condenser with smaller internal volume were introduced from MY 2002. The capacity has therefore been changed slightly (condenser -70 g (-2.5 oz), smaller restrictor +50 g (1.8 oz)). Refer to Refrigerant Circuit (vehicle-specific service information) and the Parts Information.
