Key Product Information
Additional Information
| SYMPTOMS | Typical failure symptoms reported on vehicles fitted with 8R0-885-973-R-25D: collapsed or uneven padding, wrinkled or split upholstery, side bolster wear that no longer supports the occupant, and creaking or shifting under load. Symptoms vary by model year and option content, so confirm fitment before ordering. |
| TROUBLESHOOTING | Before replacing 8R0-885-973-R-25D, work through the following: pull the seat forward and back through its full travel and check for looseness at the mounting points before blaming the cushion itself, then inspect the cover retention hog rings and foam for tears. A scan tool with Audi specific coverage will show considerably more than a generic code reader. |
| INSTALLATION | Correct installation of this headrest (8R0-885-973-R-25D) requires the seat to be unbolted and removed from the vehicle, so disconnect the battery and wait for the restraint system to power down before unplugging any seat connectors. Allow for the published labor time and any post installation calibration or coding. |
| MAINTENANCE | Service upkeep for this headrest (8R0-885-973-R-25D) clean leather and fabric with a pH neutral automotive cleaner and condition leather surfaces two to three times a year to keep the cover supple and prevent cracking at seam lines. Service records also help establish warranty eligibility if a component fails early. |
| GENERAL_NOTES | Before purchasing 8R0-885-973-R-25D, note that colorways, stitch patterns, and heating or ventilation provisions vary by trim and production date, so match the interior code from the vehicle data label rather than ordering by model year alone. This is a genuine Audi part supplied through the factory parts network. |
| REPLACEMENTS | Associated components for the 8R0-885-973-R-25D repair: hog rings, cover retaining clips, and seat foam are commonly renewed at the same time, and any seat with an occupant detection mat should have the mat inspected while the seat is apart. Ordering the related hardware up front avoids a second trip once the assembly is open. |
