Why This Matters
Audi has identified a production irregularity affecting certain 2022-2023 Audi e-tron GT and RS e-tron GT vehicles. This issue could allow water to enter the high-voltage connector housing. Water ingress into high-voltage electrical components can lead to various problems, including electrical malfunctions, potential system failures, and in severe cases, safety risks associated with high-voltage systems.
Ensuring the integrity of the high-voltage system is crucial for the safe and reliable operation of your electric vehicle. The presence of water in these critical areas can compromise the vehicle's electrical performance and longevity.
What's the Issue?
Specifically, the issue involves the high-voltage connector housing on Audi e-tron GT and RS e-tron GT models manufactured within a particular period. A production irregularity during manufacturing means that the housing may not be adequately sealed, creating a pathway for water to enter. This could potentially affect the functionality and safety of the Audi e-tron GT high-voltage connector system.
Repair Procedure Summary
To resolve this, Audi has issued Update 93R5, which became available on May 5, 2023. The repair involves installing a connector housing cap to prevent water from entering the high-voltage connector housing. This cap acts as an additional protective barrier, sealing off the vulnerable area.
Detailed repair instructions for this procedure are available to technicians through Audi's ELSA/ServiceNet system. Dealers are instructed to check their daily campaign open inventory reports to identify affected vehicles in their stock and to complete the repair on all such vehicles before delivery to consumers.
Important Warnings for Owners
It is critical for owners to be aware of the following information regarding this update:
- Audi is NOT notifying consumers about this Update. Unlike recalls or service actions where written notifications are sent, owners will not receive a letter or direct communication from Audi regarding Update 93R5.
- This Update differs from a recall or service action. While recalls and service actions typically involve direct consumer notification, updates like this are handled differently by Audi corporate policy.
- Dealer stock vehicles CANNOT be delivered to consumers until the Update is completed. This means any new or unsold 2022-2023 Audi e-tron GT or RS e-tron GT vehicles at dealerships must have the connector housing cap installed before they can be sold or leased.
Next Steps for Owners
Since Audi is not directly notifying owners, it is important for you to take action. If you own a 2022-2023 Audi e-tron GT or RS e-tron GT, you should plan to have this Update 93R5 performed. The repair should be completed when your vehicle is brought to an authorized Audi dealer for maintenance or any other service visit.
Contact your local Audi dealership to inquire about the Audi e-tron GT high-voltage connector update and schedule an appointment. While parts are managed by Free Order, dealers receive initial allocations, and they can use the Repair Projection Tool to determine if your vehicle's VIN is included in the affected population.
