Get aftermarket, it's superior. I've had my fair share of replacements and aftermarket held up much better. Pilkington is the brand you want if given a choice. Zero issues with Eyesight.
I got an aftermarket windshield, specifically it was a Pilkington and the HUD works fine, but it does have to be a HUD windshield. Only issue was the display was at a slight angle, but that can be adjusted via the settings
I had mine replaced in November by a local shop. They recalibrated eyesight and it works fine. The new windshield is the Plinkington glass which I heard is more durable than the factory.
Imo, pilk is the better glass, but more so for quality control than overall quality. Personally, I install more fuyao than anything. If everything looks good run with it.
HAve had the change approx 2 months ago on my 2016, I did choose Pilkington without the audi marker. Paid 1100€ (Hungary) and until now it is as good as factory one.
Mine is still holding on well after almost a year and a half despite several roadtrips on I-80 and a particularly terrible drive to Fargo where a couple of gigantic semis were on the opposite end of a milled one-lane road and flung a bunch of stuff on to my windshield.
Pilkington has been slacking lately. They usually are great
This happened to me too with my 2025 EX.
We’ve had a 2025 Kia Carnival EX for a little more than 4 months and less than 4,000 miles. Twice in the past month we’ve had a rock from the highway flip up and crack the windshield. We hadn’t even had a chance to schedule the first small repair when this second (very large) crack happened.
We had an issue like this with our 2020 Kia Telluride, where you could tell how cheap and thin the new Windshield was. One little chip and it was already running through out the whole Windshield; it was a really soft hit too.
