Safety recall - Airbag control unit A4 models

[dieselguy]

Not sure if any other A4 drivers out there also got a Recall Letter from Audi UK regarding the airbag control unit software.

It's a bit of a pain to have to book it in, but at least they are being proactive about it.

My dad got his just before Xmas. My car booked in for 24/1 for service and warranty work. They informed me this would be done while in then. They said it takes 45 mins for update.

Weird as it's not on the VOSA website

Only those built after 2012. So my 2008 is safe

According to my letter it is a performance enhancement not a recall

Got my letter today and it's title is "Safety Recall : 69K5 Audi A4, A4 all road models Airbag control Unit, software update."

Perhaps too many people were ignoring it!

Had me worried for a while, my 2010 should be ok.

Thanks for the heads up

Got my letter today too. Due for its first service soon so I will get it done then.
