Can the sun film provided by Audi 4S store be used?
2 Answers
The sun film provided by Audi 4S store can be used, but its UV blocking rate and heat insulation effect are not as good as those of purchased ones. Heat insulation and sun protection: The film can effectively reduce the large amount of heat generated by infrared rays, significantly lowering the temperature of the car body and the interior. UV blocking: Medium and long waves of UV rays can penetrate thick glass. Applying a heat-insulating film can block 99% of UV rays, protecting the skin from damage and reducing the aging of car interiors. Safety and explosion-proof: The base layer of the film is made of polyester, which has excellent tear resistance and penetration prevention, preventing secondary injuries to passengers in case of accidental glass breakage. Reducing air conditioning energy consumption: Applying a heat-insulating film can compensate for some loss of air conditioning cooling capacity, preventing excessive interior temperature to a certain extent, thereby saving fuel consumption and reducing air conditioning energy consumption. Anti-glare: Maintaining eye comfort and reducing accidents caused by glare factors.
Last time when I picked up my Audi at the 4S店, they gave me a set of window tint film as a gift. I quickly had it installed to save a few thousand bucks. To be honest, it performs better than expected—decent heat insulation that keeps the car cooler in summer, and the UV protection is up to standard, so no sunburn on arms during long drives. But I noticed a minor issue: after two years, small bubbles appeared at the corners of the windshield. It doesn’t obstruct the view, though, and I fixed it with some tape. If you’re not aiming for premium quality in daily driving, this free film is totally usable, especially in the first few years of a new car. Tinting has many benefits: not just cost-saving, but also protecting leather seats from aging and extending their lifespan. Just don’t expect it to last fade-free for a decade like branded products. If your budget allows, opting for professional brands is safer—but hey, free stuff? Worth a try!
