Amazing vid! Helped me last night a lot. Just to let you know I managed to do it without ripping the headliner off. Thanks a lot. Hopefully that was just one off thing that happened;)

Great Instructional video and very well put together, just hope I never have to do it in "anger" but reassuring to have seen it done in the flesh as I wasn't too sure from the manual instructions.

Hi, thanks for your helpful videos. I have a 2014 A5 convertible(only 20k miles on it) that the top has suddenly stopped working when the top gets to vertical closing position. There are no fault codes(using Autel 980pro which has top operated and not activated switch info. Hydraulic fluid is proper. The second issue is I've tried manually closing but the lever in the center trunk won't disengage. With the top opened enough to see the mechanism, I'm still not able to move lever. Your input is greatly appreciated.

In the LHS of these vehicles there's something convered in a foam like material. What's inside the foam? I need to remove or move this component to get to my MMI radio module as I believe it has become water damaged... How difficult is it to remove without taking out the boot cards? Any help appreciated!

James Macduff Hi, the only way to lock down the rear lid is hydraulically. I am assuming the reason why you had to close the roof manually was because there is something wrong, the primary issue needs to be resolved. Unfortunately it is not a case of a “manual reset” on the A5 to get it working If you’d like more information, please contact us via the website Regards Team VagPro

Before you remove the roof liner try this. I was able to squeeze the upper tensioning bows on each side without taking the roof liner off. With the wife pushing down onto the roof deck from outside the car. Does anyone know how to reset the yellow levers and cams in the trunk / boot? Thanks for posting.

So there's no way to do this without having to take of the liner? So apparently the manual use of the convertible top is just for emergency use to open or close but not to be able to use it recreationally because then liner will be off 🥺
@CabrioletTech
@CabrioletTech 2 жыл бұрын
Hello, There is a way to do it without removing the liner, you can squeeze your hand in behind the liner and lock and unlock the tensioner without the key. Once you remove the lino it is possible to understand how to do this, you can then refit the liner and just do it blind

Good questions, if only I knew why every cabriolet roof failed without even seeing the car, let alone using diagnostic equipment You get a cabriolet specialist to diagnose the fault, said fault must then be repaired Set it in a position it recognises and it continues to work the cycle Then you, refit the fabric whilst it's mid cycle and close with button

Hey I have a different problem with my roof, there is a flashing convertible sign reading softtop cannot be used. Even when I pull the switch for it to come down it will flash the sign . I manually pulled it back and forward with this video but it still didnt work. Also I even bought a new battery still no change. Audi A5 2010 quattro cabriolet.
