How to Remove the Airbag from an Audi Q7

Model: Audi Q7 4L, MK 1 - Years 2006-2015
Part: Airbag

Removing the airbag and subsequently the steering wheel on this car model (the same method applies to many other Audi models) is extremely simple to perform since the attachment is not the classic spring type but has two simple screws to remove located behind the spokes of the steering wheel; rotate the steering wheel 90 degrees (first to the right and then to the left) to more easily access the screws securing the airbag behind the spokes; once the screws are loosened, pull the airbag away enough to disconnect the connectors; if you also want to remove the steering wheel, reposition it perfectly in the center, unscrew the securing bolt, and mark the position before pulling it off.
