Fresh Air Intake
‹› The following illustration shows the location of the components on an Audi A5 Coupé; the Audi Q5 location of the components varies
slightly. The description of the components is not different; removing, installing and checking is performed in the same way as on the Audi A5
Coupé.
Preparatory Work
-
Switch off ignition.
-
Remove both windshield wiper arms (only on vehicles where the cowl and the fresh air intake cover on the cowl - A - are one piece).
-
Pull the left rubber seal - B - as far as necessary.
-
Remove the fresh air intake cover on the wind cowl - A - or the wind cowl (different styles).
‹› If necessary, carefully loosen the wind cowl from the windshield cross member - C -.
Checking
-
Check the cowl - A - for proper installation and damage.
-
Check the seals between the fresh air intake cover- A -, the cowl and the windshield cross member - C - for damage and proper fit. This seals
prevent water from entering between window cross member and cover and running into Air Conditioning (A/C) unit air intake shroud.
Removing and Installing
‹› Depending on the version, for some countries with high dust levels (for example China), a dust filter installed instead of intake air grille - A -,
which prevents dust and sand from entering the fresh air blower.
