In 2010, Audi introduced the Audi A7 Sportback (body code – 4G first generation) – a five-door car on the A6 platform, so they are similar in many ways. This car was produced in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. Our material provides information on the locations of relay and fuse blocks for the Audi A7.
