garreth64 Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Im selling my A4 Avant on ebay at the moment, and someone has asked if it has isofix. Never having kids I dont know, so ive checked the manual and it looks like isofix should have two connectors at the base of the seat? I cant see them on my car so im presuming it hasnt got isofix but can anyone confirm this would be correct and its not a standard fit? It a 2003/53 2.5Tdi QS if that helps.

Arch Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Might be hidden in two small 'cuts' in the fabric? They aren't in the 'base' of the seat as such, they are at the bottom of the backrest about an inch or so up from the seat base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dan Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 Check for the airbag de activation in the glovebox as well as the brackets. You can feel the brackets with your fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 ISOFIX was not a standard fit on 2003/53 so if it wasn't picked as an option, it won't be fitted ISOFIX can be retrofitted in the rear seats quite easily (as long as you don't mind removing the seats) but the front is a bigger job as it also involves fitting passenger airbag deactivation.

alexc Posted August 9, 2006 Report Share Posted August 9, 2006 as mentioned above, if you slide your fingers along the rear of the base of the seat you will be able to feel the brackets. If they're not fitted, they can be as the chassis will have the bolt holes tapped & ready to accept the brackets. I've retro-fitted them on my B5 2001 A4 Avant.

Biscuits Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 I need to sort out ISOFIX soon as the little monkey is starting to outgrow his 0+ car seat. I have a 2003 B6 S4 Avant... anyone know what parts I need to fit it ? Cheers Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 I bought an IFOXFIX kit for my S4 saloon off NelsonA4sline. It was around £80 IIRC. Have a word with him....HOWEVER ...I didn't have much success with ISOFIX seats in the back so I sold the fixing kit and now have a seatbelt secured Recaro seat. It's absolutely rock solid.

danksy Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 My isofix audi seat works fine in most cars, but it was a pain in the ass to get it to fit into a Leon Cupra R due to the deeply sculpted seats It worked fine in the B6 A4 with sports seats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Are the B6 A4 sports seat the same as a B6 S4 Recaros? We tried 2 or three with no success hence went with the conventional seat belt fixed type of seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashleyadam Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 How cute - We have been using Isofix on B7 & New Clio absolutely love system well worth the money. Seat looks good what age do you start using that from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
