Product Information

Part number 7P0820679A is a brand new, unused Genuine Audi/Volkswagen a/c expansion valve.

The A/C expansion valve regulates the flow of Freon plus it supports the process of Freon changing from liquid to a gas (by allowing the Freon to expand). As the Freon expands, it becomes cooler just as it enters your car's evaporator core and cools your car's interior (with the help of your interior fan). Most expansion vales fail due to clogging, causing it to stick in an open, closed or partially open position and must be replaced.

It's no secret that that Genuine VW Audi parts are produced by OE manufacturers that uphold strict quality standards. These Genuine VW Audi OE manufacturers include but not limited to TRW, Bosch, Mann and Bilstein.

FCP Euro is a leading online retailer of high quality replacement car parts for European Cars. FCP Specializes in OEM & Genuine parts for BMW, Volvo, Saab, Audi, VW and Mercedes makes.

A/C Expansion Valve

An A/C expansion valve's primary function is to regulate the flow of refrigerant into the evaporator, where it absorbs heat and cools the air inside the vehicle. The expansion valve reduces the pressure of the refrigerant, allowing it to expand and cool before it enters the evaporator coils. This process is essential for efficient cooling and overall performance of the A/C system.

A/C Expansion Valve Failure Symptoms
  • Poor Cooling Performance: One of the most common symptoms of a failing expansion valve is reduced cooling efficiency. The air coming from the vents may not be as cold as expected, even when the A/C system is running
  • Frost or Ice Build-Up: If the expansion valve is stuck open, too much refrigerant may enter the evaporator, leading to excessive cooling and ice formation on the evaporator coils. This can cause airflow restrictions and further decrease cooling efficiency

About Genuine VW

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VW” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VW, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VW Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VW are not necessarily manufactured by VW. No cause for concern, as VW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming directly from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
