Audi in Japan
In Japan, the volume leaders are Toyota, Honda, and Suzuki, but Audi keeps a loyal base whose owners expect genuine parts and correct fitment.
Local cars are built to JDM domestic-market specifications and work in four-season conditions, so identifying the right Audi part means matching the exact JDM build — not just the model name.
