Purpose and function in the SRS system

The passenger airbag mounted in the dashboard is responsible for protecting the upper body of the passenger during a frontal collision. The component works in conjunction with collision sensors, the SRS control unit, and seat belt tensioners to form a cohesive passive safety system. Using an original Audi airbag ensures proper placement of mounting points, the correct module shape, and compatibility with the factory dashboard of the Q3 8U model.

Benefits of using an original Audi airbag

Choosing an original airbag module means maintaining the parameters specified by the vehicle manufacturer. As a result:

• the correct deployment geometry of the airbag relative to the passenger seat is maintained,
• the mounting points and module outline are perfectly matched to the factory dashboard,
• diagnostics and adaptation in the SRS control unit during post-accident repairs are facilitated,
• the risk of system communication issues (airbag warning light, control unit memory errors) is reduced.

The used component allows for repair cost optimization while maintaining a design consistent with the factory Audi solution.

Professional installation and service aspects

Due to the nature of this safety component, the installation of the passenger airbag should be performed by a qualified workshop, following the vehicle manufacturer's procedures. This includes, among other things, proper power disconnection, inspection of the wiring harness, connectors, and the SRS control unit, as well as final computer diagnostics after installation. A correctly performed replacement restores full functionality of the airbag system and eliminates the airbag warning light on the instrument cluster.

Application in Audi Q3 8U

Audi Q3 8U Air Module Passenger Dashboard Unit is designed for installation in the factory location on the passenger side of the dashboard. The module's design is tailored to the interior architecture of this Q3 generation, which facilitates installation and ensures proper fitment with upholstery elements. It is a practical solution both for workshops specializing in post-accident repairs and for users rebuilding a vehicle after a collision.

Safety system expansion and related components

When repairing the SRS system, it is worth paying attention to other components such as the airbag control unit, seat belt tensioners, or collision sensors to ensure the entire system operates cohesively.
