Have a prestige trim 9.5 S5 and wear polarized sunglasses 99.9% of the time I get in the car and they\u2019ve never caused any issues with legibility for the HUD.
So, an hour and a half later I was out the door with a brand new Audi OEM windshield and ADAS calibration for $66.92, which was the price of a new set of wiper blades, totally optional.
There is a significant difference in quality of the glass itself. OEM vs non. I routinely see cars that come through with non oem glass that will just not calibrate after replacement.
Also make sure you tell the insurance company that you need OEM because of the HUD.
Cost me $2000+ for Audi Original. And i wont recommend OEM.
OEM glass is slightly thicker which is more sound proof so I went that route.
Just had this done about a month ago at Auto Glass Now. OEM front window for my RS6 with recalibration was ~$2470 including tax. Allegedly the glass place said there was no after market window FWIW.
Cost me $100 co-pay for claim and had brand new OEM windshield installed and calibrated.
Ive replaced 2 of these in the last 3 months on my RS3. OEM glass at the dealership both times.
Audi must have an issue with their windshield. Am on my second crack in 3 months.
