8U0260401C A/C Condenser Assembly for AUDI Q3
Primary OE number 8U0260401C is the starting point for identifying this AUDI Q3 condenser. SKU AD01009-013 separates the pictured version from alternatives with different ports or brackets.
The condenser releases heat from high-pressure refrigerant before the liquid continues through the vehicle A/C circuit. Clean fins and unrestricted frontal airflow are central to this heat-transfer process.

A/C Heat-Rejection Function
Hot refrigerant gas enters the condenser, transfers energy through the tubes and fins, and changes state as airflow removes heat. Correct port geometry keeps the refrigerant path aligned with the original system.
Normal cooling depends on the complete system: condenser airflow, fan operation, compressor condition, refrigerant charge, clean lines and properly sealed connections must work together.
Compatibility Review Before Ordering
Start with 8U0260401C, then compare the original unit from AUDI Q3 for overall dimensions, pipe connections, brackets and receiver-drier arrangement. Production changes can exist within the same model line.
- Confirm the primary number and each usable cross-reference.
- Match vehicle year, engine, market and production period.
- Compare core width, height, thickness and overall frame size.
- Check fittings, pipe angles, brackets and dryer configuration.
- Review original-part photographs when application data is incomplete.
Professional Installation and System Protection
Inspect nearby radiator supports, fans and air guides before installation. Correct airflow and sealing around the heat exchangers are important after the A/C circuit is recharged.
Inspection and Export Preparation
Available pre-shipment checks can include visible fin condition, core squareness, bracket alignment, connection protection and carton integrity.
Ordering Specification Notes
When preparing a purchase specification for AUDI Q3, record OE 8U0260401C, SKU AD01009-013, the required core dimensions, fitting orientation and dryer arrangement on the same line item. This creates a usable reference for quotation review, incoming inspection and repeat ordering. If the vehicle data is incomplete, add photographs of the removed unit beside a ruler and include close views of both refrigerant connections.
Wholesale and Procurement Information
For wholesale pricing, provide 8U0260401C, SKU AD01009-013, required quantity, destination country and preferred carton marking. Mixed cooling-system orders can be reviewed item by item.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I confirm 8U0260401C for AUDI Q3?
Check the original label, VIN catalogue, core size, ports, brackets and dryer arrangement. A visual resemblance by itself is not enough.
Does this condenser include every A/C service part?
The pictured condenser is the product reference. Seals, refrigerant, hoses or other service parts should be confirmed separately before ordering.
Why should the A/C circuit be inspected before fitting?
Debris, compressor damage, restricted airflow or an incorrect refrigerant charge can damage a replacement or prevent normal cooling.
Can I order 8U0260401C as a sample?
Yes. Send SKU AD01009-013, destination and verification requirements so sample availability and packing can be reviewed.
What information is needed for wholesale pricing?
Provide quantity, destination, packaging preference and any labeling or inspection request together with 8U0260401C.
