Description

Keep clean, dry refrigerant moving through your A/C system with the Four Seasons A/C Accumulator 83098. It fits the 2008 Audi A8 / A8 Quattro, the 2008 Audi A8 Quattro, and the 2008-2009 Audi S8 — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-specific fitment.

The accumulator / filter drier acts as a filter, pulling moisture and contaminants that flushing cannot clear out of the air conditioning system — which is why replacing it is essential during service. An internal desiccant bag absorbs moisture; a leaking or "open" system can saturate that bag within a few hours and leave the unit ineffective.

Leak-free design: quality welds for a durable unit.
Moisture control: high-quality desiccant for appropriate absorption.
Ready to install: necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal are included.
Backed by experience: produced in an ISO/TS16949 & ISO14001 certified facility, drawing on over 50 years of mobile A/C know-how.

Replacing the accumulator / filter drier is required to validate the compressor warranty and should be done anytime the system is opened or serviced.

Buyer's Q&A

Frequently Asked Questions

What does an A/C accumulator do?

It acts as a filter/drier, removing moisture and contaminants from the air conditioning system while its internal desiccant absorbs moisture that flushing cannot clear.

Does this accumulator come with installation hardware?

Yes. The necessary gaskets, o-rings and seal are included for installation.

Which vehicles does the 83098 fit?

It fits the 2008 Audi A8 / A8 Quattro, the 2008 Audi A8 Quattro, and the 2008-2009 Audi S8. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-specific fitment.

Do I need to replace the accumulator when servicing the A/C?

Replacement is required to validate the compressor warranty and should be done anytime the system is opened or serviced, since contaminants cannot be removed by flushing.

Why can a desiccant bag become ineffective?

A leaking or "open" system exposes the desiccant to excess moisture, which can saturate the bag within a few hours and make the accumulator ineffective.
