This was why my Q7 was on a port hold at the end of last month for this fix to be done prior to delivery.

So it looks like that any Q7 that was part of that port hold already has had the recall done.

I guess another service visit is coming. I will have them take a look at my driver window wind noise at the same time.

Plugged in my VIN on audiusa.com too: Audi Recall Services by Vehicle Identification Number

Yup, looks like another service visit.

Mine has the third row seat recall needed too. When one of you gets this done, could you please take pictures of the mod that they make? I never use the 3rd row and if the mod reduces storage space under the seats, I may hold off on getting it done.

Same here, and I don't see "Side Marker Lights" recall listed for mine.
