AC questions: 1999 A6 quattro 250,000 miles
I was so proud my 1999 A6 broke the 250,000 mile mark last Saturday I stopped and took this picture.
Everything works as it should except for the stinking Secondary Air (smog) pump! I've replaced it 3 times in 250,000 miles.
THE VERY NEXT DAY AFTER I TOOK THIS PIC, the heater core hoses broke loose causing loss of all coolant fluid. I stopped at a local store and bought a case of bottled water, stopping every 1/4 mile or so to add 3 -4 bottles of water. I made it back to my Dad's house and called for a tow to my mechanic's.
He replaced the hoses, then discovered the radiator cooling fan was burnt out. So that was replaced, too.
When I picked up the car today, I noticed the AC seems to be working at 1/2 strength. Can you tell me if this could be in anyway related to replacing the cooling fan or heater core hoses?
Thanks again AudiWorld! 😇
