    hey there, im new to this forum and new to the audi world, just got my a4 and im enjoying the ride and pretty much everything about it so far except i got one issue. The a/c just dont work right, it blows plain o air when I turn it on, it does it cooler when i drive or rev up alittle but other then that just blows air in my face. If anyone can give me their 2cents on this issue could be that be nice cause im having buyers remorse now lol...but definitely like the car. But yeah hello everyone..

    Re: new guy with a question

    if you put it on low it should blow cold... otherwise it will mix the air already inside with the outside air to create the temp to your setting.... I always start it on low then adjust as needed...

    if that doesnt work it may have to be recharged....

    Re: new guy with a question

    ^^ooooooh, dude when ur idling ur A/C compressor is barely moving, when ur engine starts reving and new fresh air is coming from outside it's much easier for the A/C to start cooling! at a stop turn on the recirculation button and it'll cool a bit better!

    Don't use the Auto setting either. I keep mine at 74 degrees, no auto, recirc button on and it feels just right.
