Note
♦
If a vehicle is equipped with a yellow colored restrictor as re‐
placement for a non-colored restrictor, add 50 g more refrig‐
erant than specified in the table. In addition, the capacity
specified on the label in the vehicle is to be checked and
amended if necessary, or the existing label is to be replaced
with one indicating the correct capacity (affix over old label).
♦
Restrictors with a modified hole have been installed at the fac‐
tory since November 1997 (colored). In order to distinguish
between the two restrictor versions, the one with the smaller
hole (1.54 mm) is yellow colored. The restrictor with the larger
hole (1.83 mm) is not colored.
♦
As of calendar year 2006, the Zexel / Valeo identification was
changed to Valeo.
♦
From September 1994, production was gradually switched
from condenser 4A0 260 403 AB to condenser 4A0 260 403
AC.
♦
The refrigerant capacity of 750+50 g applies to all Audi 100
(regardless of condenser).
♦
Only condensers with part number 4A0 260 403 AC are now
available as replacement parts (if necessary, make use of la‐
bel , part no. 8A0 010 126 P).
