Audi TT 2016 Introduction Manual page 19

Rear spoiler
The Audi TT has an electrically retractable rear spoiler as
standard. There is a choice of 2 operating modes for
extending and retracting the rear spoiler.
Operating mode
Automatic mode
Manual mode
Sheet-metal spoiler blade
Drive unit with drive shaft and
pivot mechanism (hinge)
Trunk lid
Design
The operating module is bolted to the rear trunk lid. The
spoiler blade is mounted to the operating module. The
operating module consists of the drive unit, drive shaft and
pivot mechanism (hinge) and the self-adjusters.
Note
The spoiler mechanism components cannot be repaired/replaced individually. In the event of damage, the operating module
must be replaced as a unit. The spoiler blade, however, can be replaced if damaged.
Function
Automatic extension and retraction: The rear spioler is automatically extended when a speed of
approximately 75 mph (120 km/h) is exceeded and retracted again at about 50 mph (80 km/h).
Manual extension: The rear spoiler can be extended fully with a short touch of the rear spoiler button in
the center console.
Manual retraction:
• At a speed of up to about 12 mph (20 km/h), the rear spoiler can be retracted by holding the button
down.
• At a speed of between 12 mph (20 km/h) and 75 mph (120 km/h), the rear spoiler can be retracted
fully by touching the button.
Driving stability is increased significantly at high speeds
when the rear spoiler is extended.
