Which type of roof bar mounting should you choose?

There are 3 main types of roof bar mounting systems for your Audi:

Vehicles equipped with longitudinal roof rails
Vehicles with integrated roof fixing points
Vehicles with gutters or sliding tracks
Vehicles without roof rails or fixing points

To properly install roof bars, it’s essential to determine what type of mounting system your Audi has:

Case 1: Your Audi has longitudinal roof rails:

These are easy to recognize — you can slide your hand underneath them.

Mounting : Universal roof bars for Audi attach around these rails.

This is a practical and cost-effective roof mounting solution.

Also easy to spot, these flush roof rails have no gap between the roof and the rails.

Mounting : The roof bars are clamped onto your Audi.

Case 2: Your Audi has integrated roof fixing points:

These are located near the doors and may be covered by a cap, depending on your Audi model.

Mounting: A specific roof bar mounting system tailored to your model.

This solution preserves the aesthetics of your Audi 's roof and offers an aerodynamic design to reduce wind resistance.

Here is an example of roof bars installed on a vehicle equipped with integrated roof fixing points.

Removing the fixings after use helps reduce fuel consumption.

Case 3: Your Audi is equipped with gutters or sliding tracks:

Two gutters are present on either side of the roof of your Audi — these are recessed rails along the roof.

Mounting: The feet that hold the roof bars are positioned directly into these gutters.

Just like in case 2, this solution preserves the aesthetic of your Audi ’s roof and helps reduce
fuel consumption once the mounting feet are removed.

In some cases, only one gutter is present on the roof of your Audi.

Mounting: A single mounting kit is then installed into that gutter.

Again, similar to case 2, this solution maintains the stylish look of your Audi ’s roof and allows for lower
fuel consumption when the mounting feet are removed.

Case 4: Your Audi has neither longitudinal roof rails nor fixing points:

Your roof bar specialist offers compatible mounting solutions for all Audi models.

Mounting: The roof bars attach above the door seals of your vehicle.
This is a practical solution when the vehicle lacks dedicated roof rails or fixing points.

How to Determine the Maximum Load Allowed on Your Audi ’s Roof

The maximum roof load capacity of an Audi depends on several factors:

Shape and size of the roof: For example, the roof of a 4x4 or a utility vehicle can typically carry more weight than that of a smaller passenger car.
Roof material type: A panoramic glass roof has lower resistance, and a soft-top roof (canvas) generally cannot support roof bars at all.

These features directly affect the strength of your Audi ’s roof and determine its load-carrying capacity.

In addition, weather conditions (e.g. wind, snowfall) should also be considered. The roof load capacity of an Audi is typically expressed in kilograms per square meter and may range from 75 to 200 kg/m² — and for especially robust builds, up to 350 kg/m².

To find the exact maximum roof load for your Audi, refer to the user manual provided with your vehicle.
