How to match the sunshade curtain of Audi Q5 sunroof?
3 Answers
Insert the vehicle key into the ignition switch and power on the vehicle, otherwise the sunroof cannot be matched. Locate the sunroof control knob on the vehicle roof to perform the sunroof matching. Rotate the sunroof control knob clockwise to its maximum position. Press the button shown on the sunroof knob for five seconds, then release it upon hearing a beep sound.
I've been driving an Audi Q5 for several years, and adjusting the sunroof shade isn't complicated—the key is resetting the limit positions. Usually, this is needed after a power loss or malfunction. Here's a simple DIY method: First, sit in the car and turn on the ignition without starting the engine. Locate the sunroof control button, press and hold the 'up' button for about 15 to 20 seconds. The shade will slowly slide down to the bottom and stop, then automatically rebound back to the top. Once done, the new position is memorized. Don't forget to clean dust from the tracks to prevent the shade from getting stuck, which can easily cause motor overheating and damage. Operate the process quietly and stay focused. If it doesn't work after a few tries, I recommend visiting a dealership for programming with a diagnostic computer—it's hassle-free and safer. During regular maintenance, also clean the sunroof gutter to prevent clogging the sliding rails.
Buddy, I've tried matching the sunshade on my Audi Q5 a few times, and it's pretty easy to handle. After you start the vehicle, don't open the sunroof, just hold down that switch either downward or upward for about 12 seconds until you see the shade move from one end to the other and stop. Don't let go or brake suddenly during the process. Last time I did it myself, I also checked the sliding rails and cleaned out some dead leaves to make sure the lubrication points had oil. If it doesn't work the first time, just press the button a few more times and be patient. After matching, make sure to check if the shade opens and closes smoothly, so your car doesn't turn into an oven when you're out in the sun. If it really doesn't work, just go to a professional shop and borrow the tools, don't mess around.
