  Note
t  If a vehicle is fitted with a yellow-coloured restrictor as replacement for a non-coloured restrictor, add 50 g more refrigerant 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).
t  Restrictors with modified hole (coloured) have been installed at the factory since November 1997. In order to distinguish between the two restrictor versions, the one with the smaller hole (1.54 mm) is yellow-coloured. The restrictor with the larger hole (1.83 mm) is not coloured.
t  The Audi 100 / Audi A6 features different air conditioner compressors depending on the engine and production period. Exclusive use was made at the start of production of „Zexel / Valeo“ air conditioner compressors. As of Model Year 1996, „Denso“ air conditioner compressors were gradually introduced for vehicles with 6-cylinder engines.
t  The air conditioner compressor designation „Zexel / Valeo“ was changed as of 2006 to „Valeo“.
t  From September 1994, production was gradually switched from condenser 4A0 260 403 AB to condenser 4A0 260 403 AC.
t  The refrigerant capacity of 750+50 g applies to all Audi 100 models (regardless of condenser).
t  Only condensers with part number 4A0 260 403 AC are now available as replacement parts (if necessary make use of label, part no. 8A0 010 126 P).
t  After charging the refrigerant circuit of vehicles manufactured up to October 1994, check the capacity stated on the label in the vehicle and amend if necessary or affix the label, part no. 8A0 010 126 P over the existing label (modified capacity) → Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr.87 and → Electronic parts catalogue.
