Audi A7 Prestige A/C issue
I have a 2014 Audi A7 Prestige (55k Miles). During the last couple of years, I started experiencing intermittent air conditioning cooling system that was failing to operate properly. While driving, the AC would shut off abruptly without touching the AC controls. It would come back again after approximately 15 to 20 min or not at all until the car is stopped and restarted again.
I have taken my car to an authorized Audi Dealership to deal with this issue:
First time, after 2 weeks at the Service Deportment, they told me that they couldn’t duplicate the AC failure. So nothing could be done!
Second time, they tested and found Low side service valve leaking. They replaced the low side service valve, charged the system and verified proper operation. On my way back home from the dealership the same issue came back again. No AC!
Third time: They replaced the AC pressure sensor G395 and preformed road test. A few days later the same problem gain reappeared!
Forth time: They replaced AC Compressor and worked for a while, but when I drove for about 2 hours or so, the AC would start acting up again. Now, it is happening even more frequent than that, withing 30 min or less.
Has anyone had similar problem? Please share your experience if you did. Any recommendation as to how to deal with this problem, would be much appreciated. Unfortunately, my car is now out of extended warranty, and I’m still stuck with the same issue!
