2009 Audi A5 Quattro Air Conditioning Parts

The Carquest condenser is an integral component of the motor vehicle air conditioning system. This part condenses the refrigerant into a liquid to prepare it for entry into the compressor. The condenser is manufactured according to OEM design specifications to ensure a long life with quality performance. Exact design standards produce a seamless fit into the engine compartment.

Product Features:

• This is a parallel flow condenser that contains small micro-channels. It is highly recommended that this condenser be replaced if a failure has occurred in the vehicle’s air conditioning system that has resulted in debris contaminating the system.
• This Carquest condenser has a drier attached to it with an interior desiccant bag which will provide optimal moisture removal in the a/c system to maximize cooling performance.
• The Carquest condenser production process includes quality driven details such as using zinc-coated tubes and electrostatic paint spray at high temperatures to provide the best corrosion resistance and durability in our condensers.
• Continuous molds, laser welding machines, semi-automatic assembly stations and other advanced equipment provide quality products.
• Each condenser uses only the highest quality raw materials including pure aluminum (not substandard or recycled) to provide the highest quality standards from beginning to finished product.
• All brackets are designed per OEM specifications to ensure strength and reduce vibration and movement.
• We leak test 100% of our condensers in helium leak test chambers to ensure the product does not leak.
• Our condensers are manufactured from rigid design standards to fit OEM dimensions.
• Each condenser design endures a series of tests that includes performance testing, vibration testing, blast testing, and salt spray testing to simulate real world conditions.
• Each Carquest condenser is packaged using superior box construction. This box is easy to open and seal. Each condenser is packaged in the box with internal protection to keep the part centered and away from the package edges.

Carquest Expansion Valves are designed to regulate the flow of refrigerant through the air conditioning system to provide optimal cooling to the passenger compartment. Each expansion valve is manufactured to original equipment specifications to perform its function even in the harshest climates. Each part is supplied with the necessary gaskets and o-rings for installation.

Product Features:

• The bodies of these expansion valves are machined from a single block of aluminum or brass metal.
• Each expansion valve has settings for tonnage and superheat based on the vehicle specifications.
• Each expansion valve is tested for function and leakage according to OEM specifications to ensure optimal performance of the air conditioning system.
• O-Rings necessary for installation are included.

Carquest Accumulators and Receiver Driers are designed to store, filter and dry the air conditioning refrigerant to provide proper performance and durability for the air conditioning system. They are manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment specifications.

Product Features:

• All parts meet or exceed original equipment standards for moisture absorption, pressure and temperature resistance, air tightness, vibration resistance, corrosiveness, and pulse pressure.
• Desiccant is 100% tested and assembled in a controlled environment to ensure performance meets or exceeds original equipment standards.
• All accumulators and receiver driers are helium leak tested prior to packaging.
• O-Rings necessary for installation are included.

Carquest Premium anti-lock brake system (ABS) wheel speed sensors are designed to perform in harsh environments and meet or exceed original equipment (O.E.) specifications. Carquest Premium ABS sensors are built by manufacturers that meet IATF 16949 certified framework, an internationally recognized proof of quality in the automotive industry. Each ABS sensor undergoes extensive validation testing to ensure long-lasting performance and reliability. Carquest Premium ABS sensors are part of our Carquest Vehicle Solutions, which is a full line of engine management and electronics products that help control ignition, fuel delivery and emission systems. Carquest Vehicle Solutions are OE-quality parts designed, engineered and tested by world-class manufacturers to ensure a reliable and long-lasting repair.

Product Features:

• Computer-Aided Design (CAD), laser scanning and 3D printing – utilizing Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and Stereolithography (SLA) – in the part design process ensures speed-to-market and a precise fit guaranteed.
• O-rings or seals are included (where applicable)
• Weather-tight connectors prevent leaks and corrosion for longer life
• Includes all necessary brackets and grommets for easier installation
• Extensive design validation testing and 100% end-of-line tested
• Fluorocarbon high-temperature o-ring seals coated with lubricant for easy installation prevents hub contamination.
• Carquest Vehicle Solutions Technical Support available from ASE certified technicians: 1-866-687-5413

Modern vehicles may have 100 or more electrical harness connectors in every operating system of the vehicle. Terminal tension may weaken with time or corrosion may occur within the connector housing making replacement necessary. When replacing any harness-connector assembly approved wire termination methods must be followed to ensure a successful and long-term solution to the original problem is made. A failed terminal connection, terminal corrosion or damaged wire will result in an electrical system fault.

Product Features:

• Carquest electrical connectors meet or exceed OE wire gauge, insulation, and terminal material requirements.
• Sealed connections (where applicable) to prevent environmental corrosion and performance issues
• Global coverage for import and/or domestic applications
• OE specified wire gauge to ensure a reliable electrical connection
• Designed to meet or exceed OE specifications in form, fit and function
