Audi ADAS calibration & coding
Audi pre sense, adaptive cruise and side assist - cameras and radar aligned to Audi specification, front and rear.
Front and rear
Audi calibration is not just the windscreen
Audi's safety suite starts at the windscreen - the camera behind the glass runs Audi pre sense emergency braking and lane assistance - but it does not end there. Side assist, Audi's blind spot monitoring, uses radar in the rear of the car, which is why the Q3 in the photo has an alignment rig set up behind it, not in front. Rear and side radar gets knocked out of alignment by bumper repairs and rear-end knocks that owners often assume are cosmetic.
We calibrate the lot - cameras and radar all round - with genuine dealer software. As with the rest of the Volkswagen Group, many Audis specify a static target calibration in controlled workshop conditions, with a dynamic road calibration on top for some models; we confirm the method from the registration.
Newer Audis sit behind a secure diagnostic gateway, and unlocking it is part of our normal workflow. Replacement modules - a new radar after a bumper repair, say - are coded to the car through our module programming service.
Audi shares its platforms with Volkswagen and SEAT - and at the top of the group tree sits Bentley, which we also cover.
Glass as well?
Audi windscreen replacement needed?
Our sister company Motorway Windscreens fits Audi glass, then we recalibrate the camera behind it - one phone call covers both jobs.
Common questions
Audi calibration FAQs
What is Audi pre sense and when does it need calibrating?
Pre sense is Audi's family of collision warning and emergency braking systems, driven by the windscreen camera and radar. It needs calibrating whenever those sensors may have moved - after glass replacement, accident repair or suspension changes.
My Audi had a rear bumper repair - why would that need calibration?
Blind spot monitoring (side assist) uses radar mounted in the rear of the car. Removing or disturbing the bumper can put that radar out of alignment, so it should be checked and calibrated after the repair.
Is the secure gateway on newer Audis a problem?
No - unlocking Volkswagen Group secure gateways is part of our normal workflow, so newer protected Audis are calibrated and coded with genuine dealer software as usual.
