Digital cluster retrofit — Audi C7
Audi A6 / A7 Digital Cluster Upgrade
One unit for two bodies: the C7 A6 and the 4G A7 share the dashboard architecture, so the same cluster covers 2009 through 2018. A 12.3" 1920 x 720 panel, integrated replacement for the 2009-2018 cars: plug-and-play harness, CAN bus plug-in, no coding — and because the original mainboard stays in the car, mileage and service data are the car's own.
What you get
- 1920 x 720 Linux panel, 3-second boot from ignition
- Original cluster mainboard retained — every value on screen is read from the car, not copied
- Wireless CarPlay, Android Auto and Huawei HiCar
- 8 themes (9 on Audi builds), 12 languages
- No flashing, no coding, no wire cutting
- Plug-and-play harness and CAN bus plug-in - the car's own data is read over the bus, nothing is coded
What it looks like
Fitment at a glance
Everything in this table comes from the fitment we quote from — if your car does not match a line, we will tell you before you order rather than after.
| Chassis | Model years | Panel | Factory platform | Fitment type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| C7 · 4G | 2009-2018 | 12.3" | MLB | Integrated replacement |
A6 from 2012, A7 from 2009. Left- and right-hand drive both covered.
Questions on this chassis
Why do the A6 and A7 year ranges start differently?
The A7 went on sale earlier than the C7 A6 in most markets, so the combined span runs from 2009. The cluster itself is shared.
Does the S6 or S7 take the same part?
Yes - the S variants share the dashboard and binnacle with the standard cars.
Can I test one unit first?
Yes. One unit ships at the same unit price as any larger order, nothing commits you to a second order, and a test unit leaves the factory in 3-7 working days.
Is coding or an odometer setup needed after fitting?
No. The original cluster mainboard stays in the car, so mileage, service intervals and warning data are the car's own. Nothing is coded, flashed or reset.
Will it fit the car in front of you?
Two questions and a photo is usually all it takes. The checker answers from the same table we quote from.
How it mounts
Integrated replacement — C7 · 4G
The cluster body is replaced outright with the new panel and the original mainboard is transferred into it. The binnacle keeps its factory position, the original trim frame is reused, and the car's own data feeds the new screen because the logic board never leaves the car.Time in the bay. Ten minutes. The cluster goes onto the factory connector through a plug-and-play harness, so there is nothing to code and no odometer to set up. A shop that swaps the cluster board instead keeps the car in the bay for 90 minutes or more, then adds flashing, coding and a mileage correction on top.
