Note
♦ Condensers with A/C pressure switch -F129- or High Pressure
Sensor -G65- are supplied for production as part number
XXXXXX 401 X. As a replacement part, this condenser is sup‐
plied without A/C pressure switch -F129- or high pressure
sensor -G65- as part number XXXXXX 403 X.
♦ From 10.98 to 12.98, vehicles with 6-cyinder. diesel engine
(initially about 10,000) were equipped with condensers of a
different design. The capacity is different for vehicles with
these condensers. The condensers can be identified on the
basis of certain characteristics and the part number, refer to
⇒ page 111 .
♦ The Audi A6 are equipped with different A/C compressors de‐
pending on engine and production period.
♦ On condenser replacement, observe part number index (dif‐
ferent flat pipe versions, flat pipe dimensions 16 x 1.7 mm, 18
mm x 1.7 mm or 20 mm x 3 mm) and the different capacities
involved. If a condenser with a different part number index is
installed, the capacity specified on the label must be checked
and amended if necessary or a label indicating the modified
capacity must be affixed over the existing label. The part num‐
ber can be found on a sticker affixed on the underside of the
condenser.
♦ As of 04.99, production was gradually switched from condens‐
ers with flat pipe dimensions 20 mm x 3 mm to condensers
with flat pipe dimensions 18 mm x 1.7 mm or 16 mm x 1.7 mm.
The change in production took place gradually during the
course of 1999 depending on the engine and existing supplies
of the different versions. Refer to Electronic Parts Catalog for
precise assignment of the different condensers. Refer to Elec‐
tronic Parts Catalog.
♦ For vehicles as of 04.99 equipped with 6-cylinder diesel en‐
gine, a condenser with index D, G, R or K may be installed.
Pay attention to the different capacities. Refer to ⇒ Heating,
Ventilation and Air Conditioning; Rep. Gr. 87 ; Description and
Operation and Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).
