Default Which model years have the LATCH system...

...for securing child seats? I believe it is mandatory for all cars manufactured after 9/1/02 to have this, but that some car companies began installing it earlier. I haven't been able to find an answer to this in any of my online research, and haven't gotten to the point yet when I'm ready to talk to a dealer.

thanks.

Default My Feb/2002 build allroad did not have the lower anchors.

I had them retro-fitted without problem or charge. In fact, other than an Oil Change, that's the only thing the dealer has been able to successfully complete... >:-(

Default Do a search on this forum for LATCH

I initiated a thread about a month ago. I believe that it started with 02'. Audi will retrofit at no cost to you if you don't have it.

Default Audi was offering free retrofits to all allroads

Get your dealer to check if they still are. Mine is a 2001 that I got in Dec 2000, and it now has both lower latch points fitted. I had to organize and pay for the first with much complexity but the second one was gratis some time last year.

Default Last week had the LATCH system installed

Took a while for my dealer to get the parts but they installed them for free on my 01 allroad. Great investment work much better than the belts.

I just had the LATCH installed in my '02 and the whole process was free...parts and labor. In fact, I check with AUDI USA and it is a service bulletin out for the AR. Be certain to have the parts people order 2 kits for both outboard seats. You can still mount the child seat in the center by using one latch from each outboard set.
