Fitment Note:
This aluminum transmission skid plate shield is listed for compatible 2018+ Audi B9/B9.5 A4, S4, and RS5 applications.
The supplied fitment information identifies the B9/B9.5 platform and the listed vehicle models but does not specify individual engine or transmission configurations. Compatibility with a specific vehicle should therefore be confirmed using the model, production year, original transmission-area underbody panel design, and mounting arrangement.
Before ordering, compare your vehicle's original transmission and central underbody area with the product photos. Pay particular attention to the overall panel profile, mounting-hole locations, factory underbody panels, surrounding brackets, exhaust routing, and available installation clearance.
Vehicles equipped with aftermarket exhaust systems, transmission modifications, chassis braces, aerodynamic panels, custom underbody components, or other non-standard modifications may require additional fitment verification or installation adjustment.
Compatibility with Audi models not specifically listed in the supplied fitment information should not be assumed solely because they share a similar B9/B9.5 platform.
The supplied product information does not provide specific impact-resistance, load-rating, aerodynamic, or thermal-performance test data. Therefore, no specific impact, load, aerodynamic, or thermal-performance claim is made.
Professional installation is recommended. Correct shield positioning, mounting-point alignment, fastener security, transmission clearance, exhaust clearance, and surrounding-component clearance should be checked during installation.
