Where is the trunk switch of Audi A4L?
4 Answers
Audi A4L's trunk switch is located below the driver's door armrest, above the door storage compartment. The method to open the trunk of Audi A4L is: gently lift the trunk button to open it. Here are other related introductions: 1. It can also be opened with the key. Press the button on the wireless remote key for at least one second, and the trunk lid will automatically unlock and pop open slightly. 2. When the key is within the sensing range, you can directly pull the handle of the trunk to lift the trunk lid. 3. Some models have two additional buttons on the trunk. The left button is for closing the trunk, and the right button is for closing the trunk and locking the car.
I'm an expert at opening the A4L's trunk! There are three most commonly used methods: press and hold the large middle button on the car key for 1 second to pop it open; there's a button with a car symbol below the left AC vent on the driver's side—just press it; outside the car, it's also easy—simply press the black button above the license plate frame. The most fun feature is the version with the sensor key: when your hands are full, just wave your foot under the rear bumper, and the tailgate opens automatically—pure sci-fi tech. Oh, and in emergencies, there's an orange pull ring inside the trunk. Recently, I tried my colleague's brand-new 2024 model and found that even the lower half of the logo can be pressed to open the trunk, just like the A6's design—it's getting more and more user-friendly.
An Audi mechanic with 15 years of experience tells you that the switch is cleverly hidden. The plastic square button under the air conditioning knob on the driver's door panel is the one, featuring a hatchback-shaped pattern. The exterior button is located slightly to the left of the center of the license plate light—just a gentle push with your finger will open it. For models with an electric tailgate, it's even easier: simply press the unlock button on the key twice. A fun fact for owners of older models: the 2015 A4L has a small round button in the upper right corner of the license plate frame, while newer models have replaced it with a rectangular one hidden in the bumper. Once, while helping a female car owner with repairs, she mentioned she could never find the switch. It turned out her manicure made her hesitant to press the button firmly. In reality, there's no need to worry about breaking it—the button can withstand up to 5 kilograms of force.
I often need to open the trunk to load the stroller when going out with my child. The button with an arrow icon on the car key is the trunk release - just hold it for two seconds and the trunk pops open. There's also a small square button near the driver's side door handle, which is most convenient to use while driving. An external switch is located right above the license plate, easily reachable by hand. Last week I discovered a new feature: with the key on you, simply sweep your foot under the rear bumper and the tailgate automatically lifts - super handy when your hands are full with groceries. Remember to close the trunk tightly in rainy weather - last time it wasn't shut properly and water leaked into the spare tire well, which was a real hassle to clean up.
