Sunroof Button Audi A3 8V S3 Q3 2012-2018

Audi A3 8V sunroof control knob — restore precise roof operation

The Audi A3 8V sunroof control knob uses a rotary potentiometer: over time, its tracks wear down, causing the sunroof to stop mid-stroke or refuse to hold an intermediate position. This new control dial, part number 8VD959613, replaces the original headliner switch and restores smooth, progressive sunroof operation.

Designed for your Audi A3 8V, S3 and Q3

The part replicates the shape, detents and markings of the selector installed in the Audi headliner console. Three shades are available — grey, black and beige — to perfectly match your headliner, whether dark or light. Once clipped in, the control sits flush, with no play or visible color difference.

Technology, quality & finish

At the heart of the part is a potentiometer with reinforced tracks, designed to withstand thousands of rotations without hard spots or dead zones. The position detents are calibrated to provide the same tactile feel as the original, and the symbol backlighting is preserved. The ABS body and keyed connector match the manufacturer's dimensions, ensuring connection without an adapter.

Installation, compatibility & durability

Removal is done from below: carefully unclip the headliner panel with a plastic spatula, disconnect the connector, replace the dial and reassemble. The process takes about fifteen minutes, with no diagnostic tool or coding required. Compatible with Audi A3 and S3 8V 2013-2016, as well as Q3 2012-2018, depending on the version and headliner equipment: compare part number 8VD959613 and the connector shape before ordering.
