♦ Depending on manufacturer, colour of red restrictor may tend

more towards orange.

♦ To avoid altering the cooling output of the air conditioner, only

red-coloured restrictors are to be fitted.

♦ From vehicle identification number 429 DN 000751 onwards

(manufactured from 11.2013), the quantity of refrigerant in the

circuit was increased from 650 g to 680 g and the quantity of

refrigerant oil from 150 ccm to 200 ccm. The increased amount

of refrigerant and refrigerant oil also applies to all earlier ve‐

hicles. On vehicles manufactured up to the vehicle identifica‐

tion number mentioned, check whether the refrigerant oil has

already been topped up during a previous workshop visit. If

not, add 50 ccm of refrigerant oil to the refrigerant circuit. Then

check the refrigerant capacity indicated on the label and if

necessary attach a new label with the correct capacity and the

appropriate language (e.g. the label with part number

420 010 535 and index BA in German and English) ⇒ Elec‐

tronic parts catalogue and ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep.

gr. 87 ; Installation location overview - Air conditioning (vehi‐

cle-specific Workshop Manual). If no label with the correct

capacity and the appropriate language is available, alter the

capacity indicated on the existing label accordingly with a wa‐

terproof pen. Then increase the refrigerant oil quantity in the

refrigerant circuit by 50 ccm and charge the refrigerant circuit

with the quantity of refrigerant shown above

Air conditioner with refrigerant R134a - Edition 11.2018

Note

♦ PAG (polyalkylene glycol) oil is highly hygroscopic (attracts

water); open containers should therefore be closed immedi‐

ately so that they are air-tight.

♦ A use-by date for the refrigerant oil is stated on the bottle in

which the refrigerant oil is supplied. This date is not relevant if

the bottle is sealed air-tight. If the bottle is sealed air-tight, the

refrigerant oil can also be used after the date stated on the

bottle.

♦ PAG oil becomes unusable if it is stored in open containers for

a long period of time.

10.2.1

Approved refrigerant oils

Note

♦ The oils used with refrigerant R12 are not suitable for refrig‐

erant R134a.

♦ The name of the compressor manufacturer “Nippondenso”

has been changed to “Denso”.

♦ The special refrigerant oils to be used exclusively for refriger‐

ant circuits with refrigerant R134a are not always commercial‐

ly available.

♦ Refrigerant oils intended specifically for a particular air condi‐

tioner compressor can therefore be obtained from the replace‐

ment parts range ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ If a defective air conditioner compressor is replaced by a com‐

pressor from a different manufacturer, it is important to check

whether the refrigerant oil already in the refrigerant circuit

(from the removed compressor) is also approved for the new

compressor. If a different refrigerant oil is approved for the new

air conditioner compressor than for the removed compressor,

the refrigerant circuit must be flushed

⇒ “5.5 Cleaning (flushing) refrigerant circuit with refrigerant

R134a”, page 100 .

♦ Using other refrigerant oils may cause the system to fail, as it

cannot be guaranteed that they will mix and circulate with re‐

frigerant R134a to lubricate the air conditioner compressor.

♦ There are different refrigerant oils for “Zexel/Valeo”, “Denso”,

“Delphi/Mahle” and “Sanden” compressors. ⇒ Electronic parts

catalogue

♦ The logo of the compressor manufacturer “Zexel” attached to

the air conditioner compressor was modified from “Zexel” to

“Valeo” from year of production 2006 onwards (change in

manufacturer's name).

♦ The refrigerant oil (part no. G 052 300 A2; external designation

ND 8) for use in refrigerant circuits with “Denso” (formerly

“Nippondenso”) air conditioner compressors is also included

in the retrofit kit (part no. 4A0 298 107 A). It is the same for

mechanically and electrically driven air conditioner compres‐

sors ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ For refrigerant circuits with “Zexel/Valeo” air conditioner com‐

pressors, use refrigerant oil with part no. G 052 154 A2 ⇒

Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ For refrigerant circuits with mechanically driven “Sanden” air

conditioner compressors, use refrigerant oil with part no. G

052 154 A2 (or part no. G 052 535 M2) ⇒ Electronic parts

catalogue .

♦ For mechanically driven “Sanden” air conditioner compres‐

sors, refrigerant oil with part no. G 052 535 M2 (external

designation SP A2) can be used instead of refrigerant oil with

part no. G 052 154 A2 (external designation SP 10) ⇒ Elec‐

tronic parts catalogue .

♦ For refrigerant circuits with electrically driven “Visteon” or

“Sanden” air conditioner compressors (e.g. in the Audi A3 e-

tron and Audi Q7 e-tron), use refrigerant oil with part no. G 052

535 M2 ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ For refrigerant circuits with “Delphi/Mahle” compressor, you

can use refrigerant oil with part no. G 052 154 A2 or refrigerant

oil with part no. G 052 300 A2 ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

Air conditioner with refrigerant R134a - Edition 11.2018

♦ For refrigerant circuits with “Zexel / Valeo” air conditioner com‐

pressors, use can be made of both the refrigerant oil (G 052

154 A2) and the refrigerant oil (G 052 200 A2) contained in the

retrofit kit (part no. 4A0 298 107) ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ At present, the electrically driven air conditioner compressor

(e.g. of “Denso” type on the Audi Q5 Hybrid) is filled with the

same refrigerant oil as the mechanically driven air conditioner

compressor of the same manufacturer (refer to rating plate on

air conditioner compressor) ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ To ensure that air conditioner service stations do not always

need to be cleaned before starting work on a different type of

vehicle (due to the different refrigerant oils used depending on

the manufacturer of the air conditioner compressor), specified

small quantities (up to max. 10%) of the total quantity of re‐

frigerant oil in the corresponding refrigerant circuit are permit‐

ted to meet a different specification from that of the air

conditioner compressor installed. On Audi vehicles, this

means that it is permitted to use max. 10% refrigerant oil of

the type SP 10 (or SP A2) on vehicles with a “Denso” air con‐

ditioner compressor (with ND 8 refrigerant oil) or max. 10%

refrigerant oil of the type ND 8 on vehicles with a “Sanden”,

“Delphi/Mahle” or “Visteon” air conditioner compressor (with

SP 10 or SP A2 refrigerant oil). However, other refrigerant oils

not listed here must not be used (different properties due to

different viscosity, different/missing additives etc.).

♦ Instead of using an air conditioner service station, refrigerant

oil extracted when emptying the refrigerant circuit can be add‐

ed via an open connection or, when valve -3- is removed, via

a service connection -1- or -2- using a commercially available

disposable syringe

⇒ “3.5 Connections for quick-release coupling in refrigerant

circuit”, page 51 before evacuating the refrigerant circuit. This

may be practical e.g. if the refrigerant oil specified for the re‐

frigerant circuit is normally only rarely used. The refrigerant oil

added must always be fresh ⇒ “2.8 Refrigerant oil”, page 13

and ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue . The positioning of service

connection -1- or -2- in the vehicle is different ⇒ Heating, air

conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Installation location overview - Air

conditioning (vehicle-specific Workshop Manual).

Important information:

As refrigerant oil is extremely hygroscopic, open containers must

be closed and re-sealed immediately after use to prevent mois‐

ture from entering.

Note

♦ A use-by date for the refrigerant oil is stated on the bottle in

which the refrigerant oil is supplied.

♦ This date is not relevant if the bottle is sealed air-tight.

♦ If the bottle is sealed air-tight, the refrigerant oil can also be

used after the date stated on the bottle.

Refrigerant oil capacities

Note

♦ For the assignment of the air conditioner compressor (“Zexel/

Valeo”, “Sanden” or “Denso”), refer to the vehicle-specific

Workshop Manual ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ;

Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific Workshop Manual) and ⇒

Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ The logo of the compressor manufacturer “Zexel” attached to

the air conditioner compressor was modified from “Zexel” to

“Valeo” from year of production 2006 onwards (change in

manufacturer's name).

♦ With “Zexel / Valeo”, “Denso” and “Sanden” compressors, the

amount of refrigerant oil in the replacement compressor cor‐

responds to the total quantity of oil to be added. When renew‐

ing the air conditioner compressor, the quantity of refrigerant

oil in the compressor to be fitted must therefore be adjusted

(an incorrect refrigerant oil quantity will cause damage to the

compressor).

♦ When pouring (flushing) the refrigerant oil out of the replace‐

ment compressor (or the defective air conditioner compres‐

sor), a small quantity of oil generally remains in the

mechanically driven air conditioner compressor (20 to 30

3

cm ). This refrigerant oil does not affect the function of the air

conditioner and can therefore be ignored (always remains in

the compressor). A larger quantity of refrigerant oil may remain

in the electrically driven air conditioner compressor depending

on the structure and version, which may mean that the air

conditioner compressor may need to be flushed to empty it

⇒ “5.5.2 Flushing electrically driven air conditioner compressor

(removing refrigerant oil)”, page 119 .

♦ On initial switch-on, the refrigerant oil is distributed throughout

the refrigerant circuit.

♦ Unless otherwise stated, the refrigerant oil capacities specified

also apply to the corresponding “S” and “RS” versions of this

vehicle model.

♦ For refrigerant oil quantities required for topping up when re‐

newing defective refrigerant circuit components, refer to

⇒ page 272 . Also ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ;

Note

♦ The replacement compressor contains the full quantity of oil

intended for the refrigerant circuit. If the air conditioner com‐

pressor is renewed, the quantity of oil in the compressor must

therefore be adjusted accordingly ⇒ page 272 .

♦ Different air conditioner compressors are fitted depending on

the production period and engine.

♦ At the start of production, “Denso” air conditioner compressors

(type “6 SEU 14C”) or “Sanden” air conditioner compressors

(“7 PXE 16/14”) were fitted; see ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue

and ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant cir‐

cuit (vehicle-specific Workshop Manual).

♦ Depending on the engine, “Sanden” air conditioner compres‐

sors (type “11 PXC 14”) or “Delphi/Mahle” air conditioner

compressors (type “6 CVC 140”) may also be fitted at a later

date (introduction not yet finalised, planned from 09.12 on‐

wards); see ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue and ⇒ Heating, air

conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific

Workshop Manual).

♦ At a later date, air conditioner compressors manufactured by

“Denso” or “Sanden” in another version may be installed de‐

pending on the engine (introduction not yet finalised) ⇒ Elec‐

tronic parts catalogue .

♦ These air conditioner compressors are available as replace‐

ment parts with different oil capacities, so it is important to pay

attention to the oil quantity in the air conditioner compressor

and to check the exact part number ⇒ Heating, air condition‐

ing; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific Work‐

shop Manual) and ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ The different oil quantities in the air conditioner compressor

may result from the design of the air conditioner compressor

(with or without oil separator at high-pressure connection) or,

in the case of identical air conditioner compressors, from the

design of the refrigerant circuit; pay attention to these quanti‐

ties. Too much oil in the circuit results in higher pressures and

a reduced cooling output of the system. Too little oil may lead

to lubrication problems in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ The air conditioner compressor may have been fitted at the

factory with a type plate indicating the part number and the

quantity of refrigerant oil in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ As of 11.2012, the quantity of refrigerant oil for the “Denso” air

conditioner compressor with part number “5Q0 xxx xxx” was

gradually increased from 80 ccm to 110 ccm. The increased

quantity of refrigerant oil applies retroactively to all vehicles

with this air conditioner compressor. On vehicles manufac‐

tured with this air conditioner compressor up to 11.2012, check

whether the quantity of refrigerant oil has already been in‐

creased during a previous workshop visit. If not, add 30 ccm

of refrigerant oil to the refrigerant circuit . Then enter the re‐

frigerant oil capacity on the label in waterproof ink ⇒ Heating,

♦ The replacement compressor contains the full quantity of oil

intended for the refrigerant circuit. If the air conditioner com‐

pressor is renewed, the quantity of oil in the compressor must

therefore be adjusted accordingly ⇒ page 272 .

♦ Different air conditioner compressors are fitted depending on

the production period and engine.

♦ At the start of production, exclusive use was made of air con‐

ditioner compressors of type “7 SEU 16” from “Denso” (e.g. air

conditioner compressor with part no. 1K0 820 803 up to index

“D”). In Model Year 2004 (as of approx. 10.03), a gradual

change was made to a different type of “Denso” compressor

(“7 SEU 17” e.g. air conditioner compressor with part no. 1K0

820 803 as of index “E”).

♦ With effect from Model Year 2004 (as of approx. 10.03), “Zex‐

el / Valeo” (type “DSC17E”) and “Sanden” (type “PXE16”) air

conditioner compressors are also gradually being introduced

depending on the engine ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ The logo of the compressor manufacturer “Zexel” attached to

the air conditioner compressor was modified from “Zexel” to

“Valeo” from year of production 2006 onwards (change in

manufacturer's name).

♦ From model year 2008 onwards, “Denso” compressors (type

“6 SEU 14”) and “Delphi/Mahle” air conditioner compressors

are also gradually being introduced depending on the engine

⇒ Electronic parts catalogue and ⇒ Heating, air conditioning;

Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific Workshop

Manual).

♦ This air conditioner compressor is available as a replacement

part with different oil capacities, so it is important to pay at‐

tention to the oil quantity in the compressor and to check the

exact part number ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ;

Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific Workshop Manual) and ⇒

Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ The different oil quantities in the air conditioner compressor

may result from the design of the air conditioner compressor

(with or without oil separator at high-pressure connection) or,

in the case of identical air conditioner compressors, from the

design of the refrigerant circuit; pay attention to these quanti‐

ties. Too much oil in the circuit results in higher pressures and

a reduced cooling output of the system. Too little oil may lead

to lubrication problems in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ The air conditioner compressor may have been fitted at the

factory with a type plate indicating the part number and the

quantity of refrigerant oil in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ The reason for the different oil quantities in the air conditioner

compressor may be the design of the air conditioner compres‐

sor, or the design of the refrigerant circuit on vehicles with an

identical air conditioner compressor; please note the different

oil quantities. Too much oil in the circuit results in higher pres‐

sures and a reduced cooling output of the system. Too little oil

may lead to lubrication problems in the air conditioner com‐

pressor.

♦ The air conditioner compressor may have been fitted at the

factory with a type plate indicating the part number and the

quantity of refrigerant oil in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ As of 11.2012, the quantity of refrigerant oil for the “Denso” air

conditioner compressor was gradually increased from 80 ccm

to 110 ccm. The increased quantity of refrigerant oil applies

retroactively to all vehicles with this make of air conditioner

compressor. On vehicles manufactured up to 06.2013, check

whether the quantity of refrigerant oil has already been in‐

creased during a previous workshop visit. If not, add 30 ccm

of refrigerant oil to the refrigerant circuit . Then enter the re‐

frigerant oil capacity on the label with a waterproof pen ⇒

Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant circuit (ve‐

hicle-specific Workshop Manual), and fill the refrigerant circuit

with the quantity of refrigerant indicated above

♦ The refrigerant oil used in the Audi A3 e-tron must be different

to the oil used in vehicles with a mechanically driven air con‐

ditioner compressor (e.g. refrigerant oil with the part number

G 052 535 M2) ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue . Since the stor‐

age tanks in most air conditioner service stations do not con‐

tain this refrigerant, the refrigerant oil extracted when empty‐

ing the refrigerant circuit cannot be refilled from the air

conditioner service station. On these vehicles, refrigerant oil

can be refilled via a service connection e.g. before evacuating

the refrigerant circuit via an open connection or with valve re‐

moved ⇒ page 335 .

♦ For refrigerant circuits with electrically driven “Visteon” or

“Sanden” air conditioner compressors (e.g. in the Audi A3 e-

tron), use refrigerant oil with part no. G 052 535 M2 ⇒

Air conditioner with refrigerant R134a - Edition 11.2018

Note

♦ Between June and August 2012, the refrigerant circuit (air

conditioner compressor, condenser, evaporator etc.) was

gradually converted (depending on the engine and the vehicle

version). This means that the refrigerant and refrigerant oil

capacity for these vehicles has also changed (indicated on la‐

bel for refrigerant circuit) ⇒ page 307 , ⇒ Heating, air condi‐

tioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific

Workshop Manual) and ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ On the Audi Q5 hybrid there is no conversion of the refrigerant

circuit in model year 2012 (see other versions).

♦ From August 2011 onwards, air conditioner compressors with

air conditioning system magnetic clutch - N25- were gradually

introduced for certain 4-cyl. TDI engines ⇒ Electronic parts

catalogue .

♦ From the outside, the modified components (air conditioner

compressor, condenser) can only be identified by the part

numbers (label on air conditioner compressor, type plate or

lettering on condenser)

China) 2008 ►, Audi A5 Cabriolet (8F_) 2009 ►, Audi Q5 hybrid

(8R_) 2011 ►”, page 307 and ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ At the start of production, the Audi Q5 hybrid is fitted with an

electrically driven “Denso” air conditioner compressor ( elec‐

trical air conditioner compressor - V470- with control unit for

air conditioning compressor - J842- ). There is no provision for

an air conditioner compressor regulating valve - N280- on this

air conditioner compressor.

♦ At the start of production, the Audi Q5 hybrid was fitted with

an air conditioner compressor with a refrigerant oil quantity of

160 ccm. Shortly after the start of production, the refrigerant

oil quantity was increased to 200 ccm. The refrigerant oil does

not have to be topped up on vehicles fitted with an air condi‐

tioner compressor with a refrigerant oil quantity of 160 ccm.

However, if the refrigerant circuit has been cleaned (flushed)

for example, a total of 200 ccm should also be filled in this

vehicle as the specified refrigerant oil quantity. The correct

amount of refrigerant oil will already be filled into a replace‐

ment air conditioner compressor ⇒ Electronic parts cata‐

logue .

Further notes

Note

♦ The replacement compressor contains the full quantity of oil

intended for the refrigerant circuit. If the air conditioner com‐

pressor is renewed, the quantity of oil in the compressor must

therefore be adjusted accordingly ⇒ page 272 .

♦ The air conditioner compressors fitted at the start of production

were manufactured by “Denso” (type “6 SEU 14” for vehicles

with 4-cyl. and 6-cyl. engine and type “7 SEU 17” for vehicles

with 8-cyl. engine); these air conditioner compressors do not

have a magnetic clutch (they are driven continuously by the

engine). In model year 2012, the air conditioner compressor

type “6 SEU 14” is gradually being replaced by type

“6 SES 14”. Air conditioner compressors produced by other

manufacturers may also be fitted at a later date (depending on

the engine) ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue and ⇒ Heating, air

conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific

Workshop Manual).

♦ On the Audi Q5 hybrid, an electrically driven air conditioner

compressor with integrated control electronics is installed.

♦ From model year 2012 onwards, air conditioner compressors

with an additional air conditioning system magnetic clutch -

N25- on the pulley (type “6 SAS 14”) were gradually introduced

for vehicles with certain engines (e.g. vehicles with 4-cyl. TDI

engine) ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant

circuit (vehicle-specific Workshop Manual) and ⇒ Electronic

parts catalogue .

♦ These air conditioner compressors are available as replace‐

ment parts with different oil capacities, so it is important to pay

attention to the oil quantity in the air conditioner compressor

and to check the exact part number ⇒ Heating, air condition‐

ing; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific Work‐

shop Manual) and ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ The different oil quantities in the air conditioner compressor

may result from the design of the air conditioner compressor

(with or without oil separator at high-pressure connection) or,

in the case of identical air conditioner compressors, from the

design of the refrigerant circuit; pay attention to these quanti‐

ties. Too much oil in the circuit results in higher pressures and

a reduced cooling output of the system. Too little oil may lead

to lubrication problems in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ The air conditioner compressor may have been fitted at the

factory with a type plate indicating the part number and the

quantity of refrigerant oil in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ At the start of production, air conditioner compressors with air

conditioning system magnetic clutch - N25- and with part num‐

ber 8T0 260 805 with index “C” were installed. The label on

these air conditioner compressors indicates a refrigerant oil

3

capacity of 80 +/- 10 cm . Shortly after the start of production,

3

the refrigerant oil quantity was raised also to 110 +/- 10 cm

for this air conditioner compressor.

♦ On the 10-cyl. TFSI engine (Audi RS 6), an air conditioner

compressor with a smaller refrigerant oil capacity (70 +/ -

3

10 cm ) than on the 10-cyl. FSI engine (Audi S6) and on other

3

engines (130 +/ - 10 cm ) is installed due to the differing engine

test procedure; currently the air conditioner compressors of

the 10-cyl. FSI and 10-cyl. TFSI engines only differ in the part

number and the refrigerant oil capacity; also refer to compres‐

sor's label. To adjust the total quantity of oil in the refrigerant

circuit on the 10-cyl. TFSI engine (Audi RS 6), the quantity of

oil that is "missing" in the air conditioner compressor (60 +/ -

total of 160 ccm should also be filled in in this vehicle as the

specified refrigerant oil quantity. The correct amount of refrig‐

erant oil will already be filled into a replacement air conditioner

compressor ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ From model year 2014 onwards, air conditioner compressors

with an air conditioning system magnetic clutch - N25- fitted

additionally at the pulley will gradually be introduced for certain

engines and models (type “6 SES 14” or “6 SAS 14”) ⇒ Heat‐

ing, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-

specific Workshop Manual) and ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ From model year 2015 onwards, air conditioner compressors

will gradually be introduced for which the quantity of refrigerant

oil in the air conditioner compressor is 110 ccm (e.g. type “6

SES 14” or “6 SAS 14”) ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr.

87 ; Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific Workshop Manual)

and ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue . On vehicles with such air

conditioner compressors, the quantity of refrigerant oil in the

refrigerant circuit is 110 ccm +20 / -10 ccm (the quantity of

refrigerant oil stipulated for service thus remains 120 ccm +/-

10 ccm).

♦ On the basis of technical product information (TPI), vehicles

manufactured up to and including Model Year 2014 may be

retrofitted with an air conditioner compressor of type “6 SES

14” instead of the air conditioner compressor fitted at the fac‐

tory. A refrigerant oil capacity of 120 ccm remains valid for

such vehicles (if applicable, add 10 ccm of refrigerant oil after

flushing the refrigerant circuit and installing a new air condi‐

tioner compressor).

♦ This air conditioner compressor is available as a replacement

part with different oil capacities, so it is important to pay at‐

tention to the oil quantity in the compressor and to check the

exact part number ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ;

Refrigerant circuit (vehicle-specific Workshop Manual) and ⇒

♦ The different oil quantities in the air conditioner compressor

may result from the design of the air conditioner compressor

(with or without oil separator at high-pressure connection) or,

in the case of identical air conditioner compressors, from the

design of the refrigerant circuit; pay attention to these quanti‐

ties. Too much oil in the circuit results in higher pressures and

a reduced cooling output of the system. Too little oil may lead

to lubrication problems in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ The air conditioner compressor may have been fitted at the

factory with a type plate indicating the part number and the

quantity of refrigerant oil in the air conditioner compressor.

Air conditioner with refrigerant R134a - Edition 11.2018

Note

♦ The replacement compressor contains a certain amount of re‐

3

frigerant oil (currently 130 +/ - 10 cm depending on the air

conditioner compressor, refer to label). This quantity of refrig‐

erant oil currently corresponds to the quantity of oil specified

for this refrigerant circuit on vehicles with one or two evapo‐

rators (except vehicles with 8-cyl. TDI engine; for these vehi‐

cles see below). At present, the same amount of oil is used in

vehicles with two evaporators as in vehicles with one evapo‐

rator. Due to the longer refrigerant lines and the second evap‐

orator, no additional refrigerant oil is currently required in the

refrigerant circuit on this vehicle. The refrigerant circuit on this

vehicle is constructed so that only a small part of the refrigerant

oil passes through the refrigerant lines to the second evapo‐

rator and into the second evaporator when the air conditioner

is operated. If the air conditioner compressor is renewed after

cleaning the refrigerant circuit, it is therefore not necessary to

pour additional refrigerant oil into the refrigerant circuit on ve‐

hicles with two evaporators (due to the second evaporator). If

the air conditioner compressor is renewed without having to

clean the refrigerant circuit, the quantity of refrigerant oil in the

new compressor to be fitted should be adjusted in line with the

quantity of oil poured out of the old compressor ⇒ page 272 .

♦ On vehicles with 8-cyl. TDI engine, the quantity of refrigerant

oil in the refrigerant circuit was increased from 130 ccm to

180 ccm from vehicle identification number 4H_ BN 018846

onwards. Accordingly, the refrigerant capacity thus had to be

reduced slightly. As the capacity specification on the label has

not yet been changed, proceed as follows: On vehicles man‐

ufactured up to the vehicle identification number mentioned,

check whether the refrigerant oil has already been topped up

during a previous workshop visit. If not, add 50 ccm of refrig‐

erant oil to the refrigerant circuit. Then correspondingly alter

the refrigerant capacity specified on the label in waterproof ink

and fill the refrigerant circuit with the specified quantity of re‐

frigerant. Finally make a record of the change made in the

vehicle data. On vehicles manufactured as of the vehicle iden‐

tification number mentioned, check the refrigerant capacity

specified on the label, alter accordingly in waterproof ink if ap‐

plicable and then fill the refrigerant circuit with the specified

quantity of refrigerant.

♦ Vehicles with an 8-cyl. TDI engine up to vehicle identification

number 4H_ BN 018845 were filled at the factory with the same

quantity of refrigerant oil as for the other engines. As of vehicle

identification number 4H_ 018846, the refrigerant circuit on

vehicles with an 8-cyl. TDI engine is filled at the factory with a

larger quantity of refrigerant oil. This quantity of refrigerant oil

applies retroactively to all vehicles with an 8-cyl. TDI engine.

If the refrigerant circuit is re-charged on vehicles with an 8-cyl.

TDI engine or the air conditioner compressor is renewed, e.g.

after cleaning the refrigerant circuit, the quantity of refrigerant

oil in the refrigerant circuit must be checked and topped up if

necessary, or the correct quantity must be added (e.g. at open

lines or component connections or via air conditioner service

station prior to filling with refrigerant). If the air conditioner

compressor is renewed without having to clean the refrigerant

circuit, the quantity of refrigerant oil in the new compressor to

be fitted should be adjusted in line with the quantity of oil pour‐

ed out of the old compressor (and topped up accordingly if

necessary on vehicles up to the vehicle identification number

specified above) ⇒ page 272 .

♦ The different oil quantities in the air conditioner compressor

may result from the design of the air conditioner compressor

(with or without oil separator at high-pressure connection) or,

in the case of identical air conditioner compressors, from the

design of the refrigerant circuit; pay attention to these quanti‐

ties. Too much oil in the circuit results in higher pressures and

a reduced cooling output of the system. Too little oil may lead

to lubrication problems in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ As replacement air conditioner compressors with different oil

capacities are available, it is important to observe the exact

part number ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

♦ Too much oil in the circuit results in higher pressures and a

reduction in the cooling output of the air conditioner. Too little

oil may lead to lubrication problems in the air conditioner com‐

pressor. Therefore it is important to observe the specified

refrigerant oil quantities.

♦ The air conditioner compressor may have been fitted at the

factory with a type plate indicating the part number and the

quantity of refrigerant oil in the air conditioner compressor.

♦ At the start of production, all vehicles except the Audi A8 hybrid

were fitted with mechanically driven air conditioner compres‐

sors manufactured by “Denso”. Air conditioner compressors

produced by other manufacturers may also be fitted at a later

date ⇒ Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr. 87 ; Refrigerant

circuit (vehicle-specific Workshop Manual).

♦ At the start of production, the Audi A8 hybrid is fitted with an

electrically driven “Denso” air conditioner compressor ( elec‐

trical air conditioner compressor - V470- with control unit for

air conditioning compressor - J842- ). There is no provision for

an air conditioner compressor regulating valve - N280- on this

air conditioner compressor.

♦ At the start of production, the Audi A8 hybrid was fitted with an
