I've been trying to trigger this, but I'm doing something wrong, on mine doesn't have it. Is there a particular sequence or motion you did to get this to happen? Does it have to be unlocked?

Good question.. tryin to find the sequence of events that need to occur for it to be triggered...

So.. I just went down to it and tried (foot needs to be a good 1 foot to 1.5 feet under bumper and wave it), she was unlocked, trunk popped open right away. Shut it. Tried again and it didn't pop open. locked and unlocked and it still didn't work. Pressed the start button, then pressed it again to turn it off. Tried it and the the trunk release worked this time. Closed it and it didn't work again. IDK. I remember when i posted that message that it worked consistently every time. I also remember when pressing and holding the unlock button on the key fob, that the sunroof opened the entire way, now it only pops open. Checked for updates and it doesn't find any.

Just got notice that my order was picked up this week, set for August delivery. I don't think it guarantees anything until its actually in production, but still better than just being waitlisted. I took the opportunity to switch from glacier to daytona thanks to this thread. Looks great in the darker colors!

good choice my local dealer had a glacier white on the way before I found mine that I was seriously considering, but so glad I when with Daytona.
I still stare at it every time I get out see new colors depending on the lighting.

I had someone at the gas station come up and ask if it was wrapped because they could not understand why it looked green and grey and black at the same time. They were really impressed haha

It is a great color. Had it on my S8 and loved it in the various lighting.

Came face-to-face with a deer in the middle of the road last night, right at the end of dusk, doing about 50 on a back road.... I swerved hard right at the last second and then pulled it back left just as quickly... truly amazing response. Heart was racing... What a car. There's one 5-star review for the AO P Zero's on the RS3 as well.

That is a sweet looking ride. Looks great with the black badges. What wheels are those? Like them.

Thanks Mike! The wheels are the stock matte black that come with the RS3 black optics package. Love them. Would look great with your Navarra Blue.
