Oil Distribution
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2018 Audi S8, 2018 Audi A8 Quattro, 2017 Audi S8, 2017 Audi A8 Quattro, and 2016 Audi S8. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- When the Air Conditioning (A/C) system is being used, the refrigerant oil that was in the A/C compressor before switching on the A/C system for the first time is distributed throughout the entire refrigerant circuit.
- Depending on the previous operating condition of the A/C system before switching off and the ambient temperatures, the distribution of the refrigerant oil in the refrigerant circuit varies. A general statement about the refrigerant oil distribution in the refrigerant circuit is therefore not possible. Therefore, observe the notes for replacing the refrigerant circuit components, refer to REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT COMPONENTS, REPLACING .
