Heater Air Duct / Air Distribution Duct (Left Side) – 4K1819655
Original air duct for the blower and heater unit (ventilation duct distributing air from the central HVAC module to the left dashboard area / center console or driver's footwell), designed for Audi A7 Sportback, S7 and RS7 (4K / 4K8 generation) and Audi A6 C8 (type 4K2 / 4K5 / 4KA) models produced from 2018 to 2026, including versions with 3.0 V6 TFSI (55 TFSI), 2.0 TFSI (40/45 TFSI), TDI diesel engines and top-tier S and RS models based on the modular longitudinal MLBevo platform.
Original VAG ventilation and air conditioning system component. Made of lightweight yet durable polymer (PP/EPDM/PE) resistant to temperature fluctuations. Mounted directly behind or beneath the dashboard on the driver's side. It ensures a directed, quiet, and leak-tight flow of air from the heater/evaporator to the air vents, preventing heat loss and air leakage into the spaces behind the cockpit.

Fitment guarantee and VIN verification
Each air duct undergoes an inspection of the mounting edges and a check for mechanical damage before packaging.
Fitment / installation tip: The initial designation 4K1 (ventilation group
819) along with the odd final digit 655 uniquely identifies the duct dedicated to the left side for the European body style with left-hand drive (LHD). It forms a pair with the previously described right duct4K1819656. Cracked or leaking air ducts after a collision cause air whistling at higher blower speeds, reduced heating/cooling efficiency, and unwanted heating of the spaces behind the MMI screens. The original OEM duct guarantees factory-standard seal tightness at the socket connections. Before purchase, we recommend comparing the OE number embossed on the plastic or verifying it using the vehicle's VIN.
