Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 60 number 09-03 dated April 6, 2009 for reasons listed below.
Affected Vehicles
Condition
While closing the sunroof, the sunroof panel reverses. This generally occurs within the last few centimeters of travel.
Technical Background
A4 Avant:
Sliding pins on the glass roof panel do not enter the guide plate in the roof frame smoothly. The pinch protection system then intervenes.
A4 Sedan:
Sunroof motor software causing incorrect pinch activation.
Production Solution
Modified guide plate and change in sunroof motor software.
Service
Service procedure for A4 Avant:
1. Completely open the sunroof panel.
2. Locate the guide as shown in Figure 1. Bevel the edge of the entry rib with a file. Make certain that any filings are contained and removed from the frame area. Do not remove the material any further than the first rib.
TIP: The material must not be removed any further than the first rib to ease the transition of the sliding pins and prevent premature pinch protection intervention.
3. The sliding pins should move freely in the guide plate as shown in Figure 2.
4. Replace sunroof motor.
Service procedure for A4 Sedan:
Replace sunroof motor.
