Condenser, Removing And Installing, RS Models: Notes

2019 Audi A5 Quattro Premium Plus, 2D ConvertibleSECTION Notes

Special tools and workshop equipment requiredΒ 

  • Engine Bung Set :VAS6122Β 
  • The radiator and condenser may have small indentations on the fins even when installed correctly. This is not damage. Do not replace the radiator or condenser because of those small indentations.
  • Slight deformations on the side securing straps on the condenser (for example, due to an accident), can result in an unparallel flow from the condenser and radiator; this can be resolved by pulling the straps back as long as the function/condenser sealing is not impaired. The straps on the condenser do not need to be replaced if there are small deformations.
  • A slight bending of the condenser (up to 4 mm) is permissible as long as there is sufficient distance (minimum 4 mm) between the condenser and the radiator and the function/sealing of the condenser (of the refrigerant circuit) is not impaired.
