Customer states:
One or a combination of the following symptoms:
• They hear wind noise in the roof area with the sunroof panel closed.
• They have seen water drip from the headliner area.
• The sunroof opening perimeter seal is distorted and/or not flush with the roof panel.

Technical Background
The adhesion of the sunroof opening perimeter seal to the roof panel may be compromised or have failed
completely. There could possibly be any degree of detachment which could cause the symptoms specified in
this TSB. Any detachment whatsoever discovered in the inspection is a possible point of entrance for wind
and/or water into the cabin. Any detachment must be corrected by replacement of the sunroof opening
perimeter seal.

Production Solution
Not applicable.

Service
1. Begin the inspection of the sunroof opening perimeter seal adhesion by fully opening the front
sunroof glass panel (Figure 1).
2. Press the seal downwards and inwards with your fingers until the adhesive tape for the seal is
visible (Figure 2). The foam adhesive tape may be stretched but it must not be loose or detached
from the roof panel to any degree.
3. Figure 3 shows a properly adhered adhesive band.

Technical Service Bulletin
4. Repeat this procedure centimeter by centimeter over the entire length of the front sunroof
opening. When this is completed, close the front sunroof panel.
5. Using the same inspection principle used in the inspection of the front portion of the sunroof
opening perimeter seal check the seal adhesion in the rear portion of the sunroof opening (Figure
4).
6. Figures 5 - 8 clearly show that the adhesive tape has come loose from the vehicle body. The
obvious color and shape difference at the point of contact revealing the gaps is evidence of
detachment.
7. A gap in the attachment is revealed in the examples in Figures 5 - 8.
8. The locations where the adhesion is compromised or has failed is a possible entry point for water
into the cabin. The area directly below these openings is outside the area of the sunroof drainage.
If any adhesion is found to be compromised or failed to any extent replace the sunroof opening
perimeter seal. Follow the procedure in ElsaPro explicitly to ensure proper seal adhesion paying
particularly close attention to the adhesion surface preparation.
9. All vehicles for which this TSB applies with the exception of the Q4 e-tron models, will need the
sunroof panel and rollershade end stop adaptation performed after reassembly using the sunroof
panel and rollershade switches. Refer to TSB 2054505: 60 Sunroof glass panel or sunroof

rollershade do not operate for instructions. For Q4 e-tron models the sunroof panel and

rollershade end stop adaptation is performed using the VAS tester in Guided Functions.
