If your auto shifter is pushed over for manual gear selection, hitting "P" for park will cause it to automatically move back to the default position.

No ash tray
Air Play goes on and radio goes off
Trunk opens inadvertently.
Glove compartment reverse tilt.
Excellent ride and handling. Improved over 2018 A6.
Too complicated. Wife won’t go near it.
No storage under front seats.

This isn't a feature but a software bug: set the vehicle in Dynamic or Individual mode, turn off the car, turn it back on and the car will be in Auto mode. The dash still says Dynamic, but it's actually Auto mode. You must manually select Dynamic every time you start the car despite what it shows on the instrument cluster.

Seems that with mid-range B&O system (the one with 3D effects) all the cracks and pops are gone when you completely disable 3D audio processing :-O (change volume -> click the cog icon while on display -> scroll down a bit, turn the thing off completely). On day 2 with 3D off and not heard a single crack.

Hmmm..... I will have to look into this. I thought I was always in Dynamic; as it's shown and I never change out. Although I haven't noticed a discernable difference when i did try other modes, maybe that is why.

Is this confirmed? Because I'm "always in dynamic" lol.

If your key fob runs out of battery, lift up the center console cover and look for the key symbol right near the wireless charging pad. If you put your dead key fob on it the car will recognize it and you can turn on your engine as before.

Default Dynamic mode versus Sport program

I am always in "dynamic" mode but when I change the drive mode to "dynamic" the "sport" program engages. When I shut the car off and start it up again the drive mode remains "dynamic" but the drive program reverts to "normal". Pull the shifter back and the drive program changes to "sport". Any drive mode can engage the sport program by pulling back the shifter.

Yep, same. Always in Dynamic Sport. So shifting into sport sets the car to true Dynamic then?
