I have a 2006 A4 2.0TDI estate which I bought in June 2008. With the recent cold weather I've been using the heated rear window. The back window works fine, but the two side windows in the estate boot area (what are those windows called?) do not demist/ice (but obviously have wire running through them)

I just want to check that there isn't a separate control for these before I take it to the dealership to be fixed under warranty

Many thanks

James

Hi James,

These elements are aerials I believe one for the radio and the other for TV (possibly). They are definitely not heater elements thats certain.

The same question was asked on this forum a couple of days back so I'm pretty certain of this.

Saves a trip to the dealers though. ;)

no need to worry, these wires are the aerial for the radio
