Body
Doors
The doors of the Audi A4 demonstrate a sig-
nificantly increased rigidity due to the one-
piece door shell construction.
For the first time, a so-called spray-on noise
insulation is used, which is sprayed on as
required and allows weight reduction for the
same effectiveness.
The newly developed sub-frame is bolted to
the door shell via fitted bolts.
In addition, the doors have been fitted with a
second weatherseal. One weatherseal is fitted
to the door and the other is fitted to the body.
The new door concept permits a reduction in
the overall noise level of a further 3 dB (A) and
thus contributes to improving the aero-acous-
tics.

In order to account for the resistance of
normal or insulating windows with regard to
the excess force limitation function of the
electric window lifters, the relevant type of
glazing is set in adaption channel 63.
Mirror functions
The mirror heating is switched on together
with the
– rear window heating
– at an outside temperature of below 20 °C
switches on automatically.
When the mirror heating is switched on, the
heating capacity is 100%. Then the heating is
activated intermittently in accordance with
the ambient temperature and vehicle speed.
The mirror glass is kept at a temperature of
around 20 °C.
The mirror fold-in function (optional) returns
the mirrors to the normal position at a vehicle
speed of 15 km/h. The function is disabled at
the same time.
Passenger’s side mirror
Lowering of the mirror (optional) takes place
when the reverse gear is engaged.
The mirror is returned to its original position
by
– operating the mirror selector switch, or
– when the speed of 15 km/h is exceeded.
Diagnostics
The adjustment of various settings can be
performed via the control unit coding and
adaption functions of the convenience
system diagnosis.
Customer requirements relating to the
convenience opening and closing functions
can be taken into account via adaption
channel 62.

Multi-communication bar (MCB)
The Audi A4 Saloon features the multi-com-
munication bar in the top part of the rear win-
dow for the first time.
The
– aerial module,
– aerial for navigation system (GPS),+
– and aerial for telephone (GSM)
are fitted in the MCB.
The
– aerial diversity,
– aerial amplifier for the four radio aerials
(FM1-4, AM),
– 4 aerial amplifiers for the TV aerials 1-4,
– aerial for radio remote control, central lock-
ing (RCL),
– and the aerial for the telestart function (TS)
of the auxiliary heating
are integrated in the aerial module.
The aerial conductor is located in the rear
window. The electrical connection between
the aerial amplifier and the conductor on the
rear window is made by means of spring
contacts.
Both the GPS and the GSM aerials are also
fitted in the top edge of the rear window, but
these are not connected by means of conduc-
tors in the rear window.
Thanks to this compact arrangement, no
aerials are visible from outside.
The emergency aerial for the telematics is
located at the rear bumper.

Heater/AC
Significant advantages in comparison with
vehicles without solar roof are:
– lowered temperature level in vehicles
parked in the sun (see chart),
– increased efficiency of the air conditioner
as the interior temperature set is achieved
more quickly,
– despite the reduced output of the system
during the winter, an air-drying effect
occurs which effectively dehumidifies the
vehicle, reducing fogging of the windows.
Solar roof
For the first time, the A4 can optionally be
equipped with the solar roof previously used
in the A8 and A6.
The fresh air blower is continually driven by
electricity obtained from solar radiation.
The output is proportional to the intensity of
the sunlight.
Modifications to the familiar models:
– Re-engineered fresh air blower
– The DC/DC transformer has been discontin-
ued, its function is now performed by the
fresh air blower control unit J126.
