Global Parts 3411561 is listed for 2013-2019 Audi Q5, 2013-2017 Audi A5 Quattro, 2013-2017 Audi S5, 2014-2017 Audi SQ5, 2013-2016 Audi A4, 2013-2016 Audi A4 allroad, 2013-2016 Audi A4 Quattro, 2013-2016 Audi allroad, 2013-2016 Audi S4, 2013-2015 Audi A5, and 2013-2015 Audi RS5.

This part cross-references Four Seasons 39509 and UAC EX9754C for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Weak or inconsistent A/C cooling output
• Improper refrigerant metering at the evaporator
• Reduced cabin comfort during hot weather
• Service-related A/C flow restriction wear
• System performance issues after A/C repairs

Installation Notes and Tips

Replace the expansion valve/orifice tube during A/C service, especially when the system has been opened for repair. Verify the vehicle application by year, make, and model before installation. Proper evacuation, leak checking, and refrigerant recharge procedures are required for correct operation.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts recommends replacing the expansion valve/orifice tube each time the A/C system is serviced to help maintain proper refrigerant control and cooling performance.
