Windshield OEM Volkswagen or OEM Audi

The 1st time with Audi glass had zero issues..

My SQ5 windshield has been stronger than any other car I've owned. It got hit with a rock so hard at 75MPH that I slammed on brakes and went to the side of the road because it was that loud. I was sure it smashed or was about to crack really bad. There was some powder on it from hitting it and I was extremely disappointed because it was right in my view. Residue washed right off and now I cant even see it. Literally blew my mind. I have acoustic glass in my car (prestige) but I'm not sure if the front windshield has it.

My windshield cracked the first time after 255.000 of highway only Kilometers

My old S3 ('09) and my A6 ('11) have really solid windscreens compared to my previous (non-Audi) vehicles.

The windshield on my A6 C5 original from factory lasted 19 years until a rock about the size of a bouncy ball flew off a semi and hit me on the freeway. Through the years it had been pelted countless times by different kinds of debris.

I have a 2019 A4. Had my windshield replaced by Safelite with Audi factory glass, they calibrated it, and it was perfect.

I've noticed a similar problem with the windshield in my 09 CC. Both the stock windshield and the replacement one (an oem VW replacement) that they put in after my accident have like a rippling effect to them that's noticeable when your looking out towards the passenger's side when making a turn. The ripples go from side to side.

It’s so incredibly frustrating how easy it is for these windshields to crack. My 2013 a5 is so prone to tiny rocks cracking the windshield

OEM glass doesn't distort around the perimeter. We got an aftermarket window for our Alltrack and were disappointed.

I have it on the eGolf and the trade off of seeing the heating elements is not worth the benefit. If you ever drive in direct sunlight, you'll see these hundreds of wires reflecting making it very difficult to see.
