On the 2020-2026 Audi SQ7, certain 2020-2026 SQ7 vehicles produced March 4, 2020 through July 7, 2025 are included in recall 25V900/90TV because a software issue can prevent the rearview camera image from displaying. Audi's amended Part 573 report lists 8,056 SQ7 vehicles, but eligibility depends on VIN and the installed parts and software rather than model year alone. A missing rearview image reduces visibility while reversing and increases crash risk.

Common Symptoms

  • Rearview camera image does not display
  • One or more Top View camera images may fail sporadically
  • Camera image may return after restart or bus sleep

How to Fix

Check the VIN for recall 25V900/90TV and contact an authorized Audi dealer. Dealers will install the more robust driver-assistance software update free of charge. Until repaired, use extra caution when reversing and do not treat a restart, bus sleep or temporary image recovery as completion of the recall.

On the 2020-2025 Audi SQ7 4.0T, on 2020-2025 SQ7 vehicles equipped with air suspension, Audi documents an air-suspension warning accompanied by C1260F0 or U112100 with symptom code 262400 in suspension control module J775. The bulletin concerns communication with compressor control module J1135 and states that improved J1135 software is under development as the production solution; it does not promise an owner-installed update or replace the bulletin diagnostic branches. The bulletin does not support the former blanket claims about leaking air struts, compressor overwork, vehicle weight, sagging, nose dive or rough ride.

This issue also affects: Audi e-tron, Audi RS7, Audi S8

Common Symptoms

  • Air-suspension malfunction warning or air-spring symbol in the instrument cluster

How to Fix

Inspect the wiring and connector contacts between J775 and J1135 first. If no wiring fault is found, clear a first passive or sporadic fault and release the vehicle. Replace J1135 for an active or static fault, or when the same passive or sporadic fault returns a second time, following Audi workshop information and VIN-specific ETKA data. Do not replace an air spring, strut or compressor assembly solely from the warning.
