2007 Audi Q7

THERE SEEMS TO BE LEAKING FROM THE SUNROOF THAT LETS WATER INTO THE AMP. THE LEAK GOES INTO THE AMP AND CAUSES THE BATTERY TO DRAIN WHEN SITTING. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN KNOWN BY AUDI FOR A WHILE AND HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND FIX THE ISSUE. THE AVERAGE COST TO MAKE THE AMP AND ROOF REPAIR IS $4,500. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. THANK YOU.

ELECTRICAL ISSUE DUE TO THE FAULTY SUNROOF WATER DRAIN HOSES(CONNECTION FOR HOSES). LIKE ALL (ALL) AUDI Q7 OWNERS I HAVE ENCOURAGED PROBLEMS WITH MY COMPLETE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IN THE CAR. WATER LEAKED FROM SUNROOF DOWN TO MOST ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS IN THE CAR WHICH ARE HIDDEN BEHIND UPHOLSTERY. AUDI IS FULL OF ELECTRONICS INCLUDING SAFETY SYSTEMS IN THE CAR. MY MMI SYSTEM DIED DUE TO AMPLIFIER GETTING WET. AFTER MMI, BATTERY DRAINED OUT AFTER JUST 7 HOURS THAT CAR HAS BEEN SITTING IN THE PARKING LOT. ALL DEALERSHIPS KNOW ABOUT THIS AND AUDI IS STILL RIPPING OFF ALL THE Q7 OWNERS ON THIS ISSUE. TOO BAD IS THAT IN LONG RUN THEY WILL LOSE A LOT OF CUSTOMERS.FULL REPAIR OF SUNROOF HOSES AND REPLACEMENT OF AUDI AMPLIFIER WHICH IS FIRST PART THAT GETS AFFECTED FROM WATER COSTED ME ALMOST $4000. NOT TO MENTION THAT I STILL STAINS FROM WATER ON MY ROOF LINER. I CONTACTED AUDI OF AMERICA AND THEY WILL NOT ADMIT FAULT, WANT ME TO GO TO DEALERSHIP AND PAY AGAIN FOR INSPECTION. YEAH. GOOD LUCK. I WILL NEVER SEE AUDI DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND NEVER BUY ANOTHER AUDI.

HI THERE, I HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY SOUND SYSTEM I.E. IN MY AUDI Q7, IT BASICALLY MUTED OFF AND I COULD NOT HEAR NOTHING (RADIO, AUDIO CD ETC.) AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. AFTER DIAGNOSIS, I WAS TOLD THAT MY MOON ROOF DRAIN TUBES WERE CLOGGED AS A RESULT RAIN WATER TRICKLED IN AND EVENTUALLY BLEW UP MY AMPLIFIER AND THE DEALER IS NOW CHARGING ME AN EXORBITANT (~$2500) PRICE TO FIX IT. I HAD NO OPTION BUT GET IT FIXED. BASED ON MY RESEARCH, I SEE THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2007 AUDI Q7 MODELS AND THAT IT WAS AUDI'S DECISION TO DEAL WITH THIS ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS IN PREFERENCE TO RECALLING ALL 07 PRODUCTION (UP TO A CERTAIN VIN) WITH SUNROOF FITTED. THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS. THEIR ARGUMENT NOW IS THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN REGULAR AT SERVICING MY VEHICLE AT THE DEALER THEREFORE THEY CANT HELP WITH ASSISTING ME TO FIX IT AND ARE IN NO WAY LIABLE FOR IT. I WOULD ARGUE THAT THEY HAD A DUTY ALL ALONG TO FIX IT OR ADVISE ME OF THE POTENTIAL PROBLEM. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED WITH THE FACT IT WAS HIDDEN FROM ME AND CALLED THE AUDI CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY TELL ME THEY CANT HELP ME WITH THIS. I AM NOT SURE WHAT I FOUND ABOUT THE MOON ROOF DRAINS IS TRUE, BUT IF IT IS TRUE, THEN I THINK IT IS UNFAIR FOR AUDI TO HIDE THE FAULTY DRAINS FROM THEIR CUSTOMERS AND AUDI SHOULD BE LIABLE FOR IT... THANKS

THE MOM SCREEN WENT OUT. WHICH SHORT OUT THE AMP AND DRAINS THE BATTERY.THE MMS SYSTEM CONTROL THE HEAT AIR . RADIO, NAV. CAR SETUP. TELEPHONE . AND INFORMATION CENTER. . IT WILL COST 2200.00 TO REPLACE A AMP AND NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THE WATER WILL BACK UP AND DRAIN OUT ONTO THE FLOOR, WHICH MAY CAUSE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, AUDI SHOULD REPLACE THIS OR FIX THIS PROBLEM DUE TO ITS SEEM ITS HAPPENING TO ALL THEIR CARS WITH SUNROOFS. *TR
