Introduction
The new Audi A8 is designed to replace its
predecessor of the same name which achieved
a total production figure of 105,092 since its
introduction in June 1994. This was the first
standard saloon with aluminium body and
epitomised a new philosophy in the luxury
vehicle sector.
The weight-saving Audi Space Frame ASF
represented a major breakthrough in terms of
enhanced vehicle dynamics, whilst at the same
time solving the problem of increasing weight.
Introduction
This body concept was further perfected in
the Audi A2 and the design of the Audi A8 ´03
reflects the experience gained from both
projects.
The aim when developing the Audi A8 ´03 was
not merely to surpass its predecessor in
terms of technical features and details.

Body
The Audi A8 ´03 sets new standards in its
class by combining lightweight construction
with outstanding stability. This is achieved
through the use of innovative Audi Space
Frame technology for the body design of the
Audi A8.
The technical progress reflected by the
unique body concept stems from the
consistent implementation of experience
gained from the aluminium Audi A8 and A2
models.
SSP282_027
Based on the findings obtained from these
vehicles, it was possible to further reduce the
number of body components and
significantly increase the level of automation
in the production process as compared to the
Audi A8 predecessor model.
The static torsional rigidity of the new Audi A8
body is 60 % higher than that of the previous
Audi A8 body.
A crucial contribution is made to the
increased rigidity level by the advanced
Audi Space Frame structure.
Characteristic features of the new structure:
– Large castings with numerous integrated
functions and a high degree of joint
strength
– IHF* sections – optimum cross sections at
all locations, for example at side of roof
frame
– Sheet metal panels with high levels of local
rigidity thanks to the use of special
technologies designed to achieve differing
functional cross sections and structures
*IHF = Internal high-pressure forming
8
A-pillar
The A-pillar is made of two cast shells
connected by rivets and welds.
The shells enclose the sill panel at the bottom
and the continuous roof frame at the top.
SSP282_029
Sill panel
Use is made for the sill panel of a 3-piece
extruded section.
The extruded section must be replaced in the
event of sill panel damage.
Depending on the nature of the damage,
either the entire section has to be replaced or
parts of it by way of three separating sleeves.
Body
SSP282_030

Rear end
The rear end has been completely
redeveloped. The two large central castings
are the one connecting the sill panel/
longitudinal member and the C/D-pillar
connecting element.
SSP282_032
The C/D-pillar connecting element (large
upper casting) accommodates the
suspension strut at the top and the seat belt
at the front, in addition to forming the
terminating side section of the roof frame.
The large upper and lower castings are
interlinked by way of two straight extruded
sections and form the framework for the air
suspension strut holder.
SSP282_033
The sill panel/longitudinal member
connecting element is the largest casting. It
supports the entire rear sub-frame and links
the rear longitudinal member to the sill panel.
Its great rigidity is designed to protect the
tank in between in the event of a rear-end
collision.

Body
A standard feature is an automatic closing
aid, which is actuated by a Bowden cable
separately from the catch. After the latch has
closed, a mechanism pulls the catch
downwards, overcoming the build-up of
pressure occurring. On locking, a microswitch
in the boot lid lock transmits a signal to the
control unit to activate the automatic closing
aid.
SSP282_035
The drive unit is only encased in foam and
inserted between side panel and battery.

In the event of manual boot lid actuation, the
electric motor is disconnected by way of a
magnetic coupling, thus permitting the boot
lid to be moved by hand. On closing the boot
lid, the drive is deactivated via a microswitch
at the latch and the automatic closing aid
activated.
Pressing the button in the driver's door or on
the boot lid, or remote control actuation,
effects release and motor-driven opening of
the boot lid. Automatic boot lid closing can
only be implemented by way of the boot lid
button.
An electric motor flanged directly to the
swivel joint of the right boot lid hinge opens
or closes the boot lid.
SSP282_036
Automatic boot lid
As a general rule, interruption of automatic
actuation always causes the boot lid to be
disconnected from the drive unit and thus
set to manual mode.

Body
Front doors
The doors are made up of a combination of
aluminium panels, aluminium sections and
aluminium castings.
Optimised rib geometry and wall thickness in
the hinge and lock mounting castings formed
the basis for ideal implementation of the
lightweight construction concept.
Rear doors
Large, high-strength side impact members
are integrated into the door to provide even
load distribution in the event of side impact.
SSP282_039
Door shell and door frame are connected at
the door pre-assembly stage by means of
fitted bolts to ensure the accurate
assignment of both components. Window
lifter frame, window lifter motor/gear
mechanism, door control unit and speaker
are pre-assembled on a base plate and bolted
to the door subframe.
13
Seats
A new seat concept was developed for the
Audi A8 ´03.
The basic seat features the following
standard functions:
– Electric seat length, height and angle
adjustment
– Electric backrest angle adjustment
– Front crash-active head restraints (refer to
Page 21)
The basic seat can additionally be fitted with
– Four-way lumbar support
– Seat memory for driver and front
passenger
– Electrically adjustable head restraints
– Electric belt height adjusters
Extra features of sports and comfort seats:
– Electric top 1/3 backrest adjustment
– Electric seat depth adjustment
Optional extras for comfort seat:
– Climate function (refer to Page 85)
– and/or massage function
The massage function is implemented by way
of rhythmic action of the electromechanical
lumbar support, thus massaging and relaxing
the back muscles.
The fixed rear seat bench versions correspond
to those of the front seats, with the third head
restraint being fully retractable. Electric
individual seats are however only available as
"Basic" and "Comfort" versions.

The wide range of sensors permits detection
not only of head-on collision and side impact,
but also of rear-end collisions.
Use is made in the Audi A8 ´03 of the 8.4E+
airbag system with the aim of attaining greater
occupant safety whilst reducing the impact.
This was achieved, for example, by way of twostage front airbag triggering, active front head
restraints and a battery cut-off element.

Safety systems
2-stage front airbags
The 2-stage triggering of the front airbags
provides optimum restraint in crash
situations at around 30 km/h. There is a
separate firing pellet for each stage in the
driver's and front passenger's airbag. These
ignite successively at specified time intervals.
Ring airbag
Passenger Protection
SSP282_070
A so-called "ring airbag", which inflates like a
life belt, is used on the driver's side. This
radial inflation method affords particular
protection to drivers sitting very close to the
steering wheel. The centre of the steering
wheel does not move as the airbag unfolds
and is inflated in the form of a ring. A
rectangular fabric layer is additionally sewn
to three sides of the ring. One side is left free
to allow the airbag to slide over the nonmoving centre section of the steering wheel.
This airbag design satisfies the requirements
of the latest American legislation and
involves compliance with biomechanical
values for so-called "Out Of Position" (OOP)
driver posture. If the driver's head or upper
part of the body is very close to the steering
wheel at the time of airbag unfolding (OOP),
this airbag concept can prevent serious
injury.
19
Front passenger's airbag deactivation
An optional feature of the Audi A8 ´03 is a new
airbag disabling key switch for the front
passenger's side E224.
Two resistance paths are integrated into this
switch to permit detection of individual faults.
A fault in the key switch is indicated by
flashing of the front passenger's side airbag
disabled warning lamp K145 located in the
centre console next to the hazard warning
switch.
Front knee airbags (USA)
SSP282_081
SSP282_114
The USA version of the Audi A8 ´03 is fitted
with driver's and front passenger's knee
airbags as standard, thus optimising driver
and front passenger movement in a crash
situation.
In this way, severe impact in the knee zone is
avoided.
Knee airbags are required by legislation in the
USA.
20
Passenger Protection
Up-front sensors
For the first time, use is made in the
Audi A8 ´03 of so-called up-front sensors.
SSP282_072
Lateral acceleration sensors
Further acceleration sensors are
located at the B and C-pillars.
SSP282_073
Detection of rear-end collision
Rear-end collisions are detected by way of a
sensor in the airbag control unit J234 and a
plausibility function involving the driver's and
front passenger's front airbag crash sensors
G283 and G284.
These take the form of two additional frontend acceleration sensors on the right and left
beneath the corresponding headlight.
C-pillar sensor B-pillar sensor
21
Active head restraints
The front seats of the Audi A8 ´03 are provided
with active head restraints.
With this system, the head restraints move
forwards in the event of a rear-end collision to
shorten the distance between head and
restraint.
SSP282_082
The danger of cervical vertebrae injury is
greatly diminished by reducing the relative
acceleration between shoulder and head.
In head-on collision situations, the mechanics
of centrifugal weight are neutralised.
Belt tensioners
Five belt tensioners are fitted as standard.
There is no centre belt tensioner if the rear
seats are electrically adjustable.

Fitting location
The battery cut-off relay is located in front of
the battery.
Triggering
The airbag control unit J234 provides the
battery cut-off element with the triggering
command via a discrete wire.
Triggering of this element by the airbag
control unit causes a white panel to appear in
the element window instead of a copper coil.
Following isolation, the battery cut-off
element can be manually reset by way of the
yellow knob.
Control element test
The control element test in the airbag control
unit also triggers the battery cut-off relay. It
should be ensured that the relay is manually
reset, as otherwise the battery cannot be
charged.

V8 5V 3.7 l/4.2 l engine
The 3.7 l and 4.2 l V8 engines were adopted
from the predecessor model with certain
modifications.
These modifications relate to the intake and
exhaust systems and are described in the
following.
Design and operation are described in
SSP 217.
Variable-intake manifold in 4.2 l engine
This takes the form of a 2-stage variable-intake
manifold made of a die-cast magnesium alloy,
bonded and bolted together in four sections.
The two-stage design permits the use of two
intake paths with large cross section.
The intake manifold must be replaced as
a complete unit when performing

– Long intake path, 705 mm
– Changeover flap closed for high torque
Each of the two splined shafts is fitted with
four flaps per cylinder bank.
The shape of the rubber-encased flaps
ensures unimpeded air flow in the torque
position and reliable power position sealing
of the duct. This is a prerequisite for
utilisation of the gas-dynamic resonance
effects. In the power position, the backs of
the flaps take on the shape of the duct wall,
thus allowing low-resistance intake air flow
into the cylinders.
Mechanical couplings provide a link with the
vacuum units for adjustment of the two
shafts and thus the intake manifold flaps.
– Short intake path, 322 mm
– Changeover flap open for high power
with high air throughput

Variable-intake manifold in 3.7 l engine
Operation of the 3-stage variable-intake
manifold is described in SSP 217.
SSP282_017
This is the same 3-stage variable-intake
manifold as previously fitted in the V8 engine.
Due to the piston stroke of only 82.4 mm,
three resonance tube lengths are required to
achieve resonance effects in the lower engine
speed range.
Changeover points:
– Long to short
at 3,280 rpm
– Short to long
at 3,120 rpm
– Short to shorter
at 5,120 rpm
– Shorter to short
at 4,920 rpm

Air cleaner
A round filter is employed instead of a flat filter
to achieve a larger filter surface area for more
air throughput in view of the different amount
of space available.
Furthermore, an additional intake air flap in the
air cleaner is opened as a function of load at
engine speeds as of 3,000 rpm to attain the
large volume of air required at full throttle. This
flap enables additional air to be drawn in from
the engine compartment and reduces the air
velocity in the air cleaner.
