Technical Characteristics of the Audi A4 B8 2.0 TDI Air Conditioning Compressor
The presented compressor belongs to the Air Conditioning Compressors and Clutches category, meaning it is responsible for compressing the refrigerant and maintaining proper system pressure. Using an original Audi unit ensures:
- Factory fit for the air conditioning system in the Audi A4 B8 2.0 TDI, without the need for installation modifications.
- Stable operating parameters under typical road and temperature conditions.
- Compatibility with factory air conditioning control, including vehicle electronics and pressure sensors.
By retaining the original design, the compressor works with other system components (condenser, evaporator, dryer, lines) according to the manufacturer's specifications, which reduces the risk of leaks and cooling performance issues.
Benefits of Using an Original Audi Air Conditioning Compressor
Choosing a compressor from the OEM Audi group translates into specific, practical advantages in daily use:
