- Air Con season is upon us and it's been extremely busy.
This 2013 Audi A4 came in with the complaint of the left passenger side air vents were warmer than the right drivers side when the air conditioning was on.
So just a quick video to show the simple fix.

I experienced this today. Left side 28°C and right side 14°C. Saw on AudiWorld forum about recharging and you video confirms it. Thank you
That was a quick diagnostic. Well done Rob.
Thanks Wyatt
The temps are high here in Houston and my buddy has been seeing a lot of AC's on the blink. Good video.
I bet he has. We had hottest day in 41 years the other day which was 34.5 Celcius (94F) So I've been rather busy :)
Great video Rob as usual. Keep up the great work and videos.
Thanks Mike!! 🍻
SORTED! Plus can you show this plate spinning and giggling trick next time?
No Problem Eric.... I've just gotta glue my plates back together and I'll be on it! 🤹♂️🤹♂️
great video Rob, I've just caught up watching all your previous ones , great stuff ,subscribed.
Thanks Neil
Very puzzling why this happens as theres only one evaporator ! ??
Nice diagnosis Rob. I love AC work...great $$ maker but sometimes evaporator changes are pain. Happy customer & glad to see you're busy. That's the benefit of being one of the few that do AC work...you're quite popular in the summer.
Hayward's Automotive Thanks, I couldn't have put it better myself. Cheers 🍻
Our A/C business is down this year in Ontario Canada. We are having your weather over here, rain and cool almost every day.
Our weather is back now :(
We still have yours. It's raining right now.
Nice work Rob and on to the next one :)
Thanks Terry, that's exactly how it felt this week. Cheers mate 🍻
He knows Audi. Working great for now. Deliver to customer and it's half warm again. $$
great video as always like the new ending credits lol
Cheers mate 👍
Nice easy fix Rob.
Simples!
It's the damn Air freshener blocking vent. Lol.
bit late to the party but great job. Weird problem...
Never too late to party mate. Yeh was a weird one that
Nice one Rob. I would have thought both would be the same temp . Why would one side be cold and the other warm - just the distance it has to travel maybe ? I would have guessed blend doors but i'm no tech either. LOL
Yes I would have thought the same Steve. It must be to do with the distance travelled & the routing of the vent pipes. Had similar on a BMW once, so must be a German thing 😉
Hi, I know I'm late. I've been wondering the same thing. My guess is that the system stops cooling the rest and just focuses on the driver.
@@morpheus232001 Theres only one evaporator so I cant see why this happens even if the distance is slightly longer and its only slightly. ??
I wonder how long he kept her sweating... before deciding to bring it to you! LOL
Haha. Not very long I'm sure lol
So basically the problem was the refrigerant level?
Hi there, for 500g do you know how much psi this should be!
When an Audi comes in with a problem and it was just a simple re-gas... You dodged a bullet there Rob. 😂
Try not to get to sun burnt down in Daventry-on-sea.
No change of sunburn.. been wearing a knotted hanky on my head 😀
I have the exact same issue on my 2014 A3. Ice cold on drivers side and warm on passenger side and back seats; as if there is no A/C at all there. Might try a re-gas!
I have an a3 and the drivers side is cold. Did regasing work for you?
great stuff,,bodgit & leggit sent me,reckons he better looking that you..haha
Haha he is!! Cheers mate
I like to put one side on Hi and the other side on Lo and let them fight it out lol
I'll try that :)
Would this solution solve also the oposite problem? I have Audi A5 and when heating is on HI it is super warm on the driver side, but coldish on the passanger side.
No you might have a flap motor not working properly on the passenger side.
Do you ever put leak sealer in the system?
No never. I don't want that stuff going into my machine.
leak test?
did u say that was the new freon?
luke cartwright No the old R134a
Do you know of any reliable 1.9 turbo diesel's? I was looking into some VAG stuff, but most common faults on them seem to be the electric gremlins. Ford stuff just seems to rust too quickly I was looking into the Focus TDCI 2009-ish and they all look scabby underneath for their ages.
8ile personally I would stick with your VAG choice.
I'm looking at Seat Ibiza PD130 TDI's. With plans of a stage 1 remap, for a little extra grunt. I believe the same engine found in some of the Golf 1.9 TDI's and found in the Skoda VRS TDI (about £600 more a year to insure than the Seat.) Insurance is stupid when you're young. lol.
wow how much was your aircon service tool??
Not much... £1.5 to £2k will get you one
really, and is it a one stop job? De-gas, leak test, purge and re-fill?
i shoud be stop being so tight and get mine re gassed and replace the relay lol
Yes do it!
Rob you can help me
Rob you can help me
Great vid Rob.
Cheers
Jamie
Cheers mate
