November 6, 2009
Affected Vehicles
Condition
The "TDI" and rear "Quattro" emblems are missing from the lower right corner of the rear lid.
Technical Background
The work instructions for installing the "TDI" and rear "Quattro" emblems during assembly were removed for a short production run.
Production Solution
The work instructions were updated to include placing the "TDI" and rear "Quattro" emblems on vehicles shipped to North America.
Service
Preparing the vehicle
1. For cold climates, allow the surface of the rear lid to warm to at least 65°F by bringing the vehicle inside before starting the repair. Failing to do
so will prevent the adhesive from adhering properly to the vehicle.
2. Clean the surface of the rear lid using soap and water, and allow the surface to fully dry.
3. Ensure no debris from the drying towel remains on the mounting surface.
Aligning the emblems
Audi Q7 Quattro 246
1. The bottom edge of the "Q7" emblem and the bottom edge of the "TDI" emblem should be aligned with each other on the same horizontal line as
indicated by the red line in Figure 1. The "Quattro" emblem sits below this line.
2. Use the dimensions in Figure 2 to align the emblems.
Tip: The "TDI" and "Quattro" emblems should have the same approximate width, but if one of the emblems is slightly longer than the other, align
the right edge of the emblems with respect to each other (right justify).

3. The new "TDI" emblem comes prepared with brown adhesive paper on the front surface of the emblem to help maintain the correct spacing of the
"T", "D", and "I" during installation.
Carefully remove the wax paper covering the adhesive on the rear of the emblem. Keep the adhesive paper on the front still intact.
4. Place the emblem on the rear lid surface.
5. Gently remove the adhesive paper on the front of the emblem.
Tip: Pressing on the emblems once they are installed could cause them to shift slightly. Be careful when applying force. Always allow the adhesive
time to settle before washing the vehicle.
6. The "Quattro" emblem has only a single piece of brown wax paper covering the rear adhesive. Peel back only the right half of the paper.
7. Align the right edge.
8. Peel back the remaining paper and align the left side.
