5 Cylinder

A/C Compressor, Removing From Bracket

• The A/C compressor can be removed from the subassembly bracket and installed again without opening the refrigerant lines.

• The subassembly bracket for the A/C compressor and its parts can be removed and installed without having to open the refrigerant line.

• Only on 5 cylinder engine with 2 ribbed belt attached to the A/C compressor. The A/C compressor has a belt pulley with a double belt guide.

• The following describes removing and installing a "Sanden" A/C compressor on a 2.5L TFSI vehicle. On vehicles with different engine or a different A/C compressor, slight changes may result (depending on engine, additional assemblies may need to be removed or loosened)

• Do not discharge the refrigerant circuit, do not remove refrigerant hoses and lines from the A/C compressor.

• Do not unfasten refrigerant pipes and corresponding clamps.

• After removing the A/C compressor, tie it to the vehicle with wire. Do not let it hang by the refrigerant lines.

• Before removing, mark direction of operation of ribbed belt with chalk or felt-tipped pen. Running a used belt in the opposite direction could destroy it.

• Different A/C compressors may be installed depending on engine and country variant. Refer to Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).

Removing the A/C compressor from the subassembly bracket and installing it again

- Perform the preliminary work in the same way as described for the 4 or 6 cylinder engine. Refer to => [ A/C Compressor, Removing From Bracket ] A/C Compressor, Removing From Bracket.

- Remove the A/C compressor on a 5 cylinder vehicle in the same way as on a 4 or 6 cylinder engine. Refer to => [ A/C Compressor, Removing From Bracket ] A/C Compressor, Removing From Bracket.

Securing A/C compressor to body






If A/C compressor is removed and refrigerant circuit not opened, A/C compressor must be secured to body using appropriate material, a welding wire for example.

Make sure the refrigerant lines on the A/C compressor remain free of tension.
