Model history and body styles

Audi’s U.S. launch document identifies the new A5 Coupé for the 2008 model year, arriving in fall 2007. Later A5 ranges include different body styles, so a calendar launch date or the A5 name alone is not a glass fitment guide.

For 2024, Audi lists A5 Coupé, Cabriolet and Sportback models with Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige trim levels within the range. Tell the shop the exact year and body style, and distinguish A5 from S5 or RS 5 when selecting the vehicle.

Windshield questions from our A5 research

Rain-sensing wipers adjust automatically when rain is detected. A head-up display projects information onto the windshield. Treat these questions as clues for the shop, not an instruction to order a specific part. Have unclear features checked against the VIN and actual vehicle.

Door and rear glass: identify the body first

For a door pane, describe its exact position and whether it is broken, tilted or moving incorrectly. For rear glass, distinguish the Coupé, Sportback and Cabriolet arrangement. Convertible window or roof-related concerns should be described to the shop before it agrees to the job; do not assume a Coupé pane fits.

What happens during windshield replacement?

1. Identify the glass. The shop checks the VIN, year, body style, mirror mounts and fitted equipment.
2. Remove and prepare. The installer removes the damaged glass and prepares the mounting area using the applicable repair procedure.
3. Install and inspect. The correct replacement is installed, with relevant trim, sensors and functions checked.
4. Confirm camera requirements. If a windshield-mounted camera is fitted, the shop determines the required calibration from current Audi service information.
5. Confirm release time. Follow the adhesive drive-away time and complete any required calibration or other checks before driving.

Door glass, regulators and one-touch operation

Identify the exact door and side, viewed from inside facing forward. Tell the shop if the pane is shattered, tilted, stuck or dropping into the door. New glass does not automatically fix a failed regulator, motor or misaligned guide.

After glass, motor or regulator work, ask the installer to check smooth travel, sealing, one-touch operation and pinch protection where fitted. Initialization must match the year, equipment and affected window. A repair-specific switch sequence has not been verified for this guide; use the applicable Audi service procedure. Repeated resets will not fix binding glass, and safety checks should not use hands or other body parts as an obstruction.

What information helps the shop quote accurately?

Select the year, make, model, body style and damaged glass, then enter your name, phone number and ZIP code. Provide the VIN when prompted after submitting. The shop may still need equipment answers or photos to verify the part.

Ask for glass, installation, moldings, required calibration, taxes and other charges to be itemized. Confirm parts availability, mobile-service options, appointment length and release time with the shop. Submitting a request does not book service. Supplier costs and glass-only prices are not published in this guide.
