Drive settings
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
Drive select provides the possibility to experience
d ifferent types of vehicle settings in one veh icle.
F or instance, using the three
Comfort, Auto and
Dynamic modes, the driver can switch from a
sporty to a comfortable driving mode with the
press of a button.
Addit ionally, in vehicles with MM I*, the vehicle
setup for Individual* mode can be customized by
you. This makes it possible to combine settings such as a sporty engine tuning with comfortable
steering .
A WARNING
-
Improper use of the drive select can cause
collisions, other accidents and serious person­
al injury .
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
The vehicle setup in each mode depends on the
veh icle's features . However, the engine, auto­
mat ic transmission and steering are a lways in­
volved.
Engine and automatic transmission
Depending on the mode, the engine and the au ­
tomatic transmission respond quicker or in a
more balanced manner to accelerator pedal
movements . In the sporty dynamic mode, the au­
tomatic transmission shifts at higher RPMs.
Steering
The steering adapts in terms of steering effort
and steering ratios. Indirect steer ing that moves
easi ly, like the steering in comfort mode, is best
suited to long drives on a highway. In contrast,
dynamic mode provides sporty, direct steering.
The follow ing applies to vehicles with dynam ic
steer ing*: the stee ring rat io changes based on
veh icle speed in order to ma inta in optim um
steer ing effort for the driver at all times. This
122
sets the steering to be less sensitive at higher
speeds in order to provide improved vehicle con­
tro l. At reduced speeds, however, steering is
more direct in order to keep the steering effort as
minimal as possible when the driver is maneuver­
ing the vehicle . At low and average speeds, dy­
nam ic steering addit ionally prov ides more re­
spons ive steering performance .
Adaptive dampers*
The adaptive dampers* use sensors to record in­
formation regarding steering movements, brak­ ing and acceleration operations by the driver,
road surface, driving speed, and load . This makes
i t possible to adapt damp ing to the driving situa­
tion virtually in real time . Drive select also makes
i t possible to sat isfy the desire for sporty suspen­
sion (Dynamic) and comfortable suspension
(Comfort) without giving up balanced tuning (Au­
to).
Engine sound*
The sound of the eng ine is adapted to the select­
ed mode and ranges from subtle to sporty.
Adaptive cruise control*
The behavior whe n accelerating can be adjusted
from comfortable to sporty, depending on the
drive select mode. Adaptive cruise control also
r esponds to the driv ing behavior of the vehicle
ahead in a more conservative or sporty manner .
(D Tips
- In some models, the maximum vehicle
speed can only be reached in the
Auto and
Dynamic modes.
- Selecting the
Dynamic mode results in spo r­
ty shifting characteristics. The S gear posi­
tion engages automatically.
- In veh icles that have dynamic steering*, op­
erating noise is heard when starting or stop­
ping the engine. This does not indicate a
prob lem.

Parallel Parking
Applies to: vehicles with Aud i parking system plus with rear­
view camera
Use parking mode 2 to help you porollel pork
along the side of a street.
Fig. 148 MMI display: blue surface in the parking spot
Fig. 1 49 MMI display : Blue curve on the curb
The following steps apply only when there is no
obstacle such as a wall near the parking spot.
Otherwise, please read the information prov ided
in the "Parking Next to Obstacles" sect ion.
.,. Activate the turn signal.
.,. Pos ition your vehicle paralle l to the edge of the
street, approx imately 3 ft (1 meter) from a
parked veh icle.
.,. Swi tch the M MI on and se lect reverse gear. The
park ing a id turns on and park ing mode 1 ap­
pears on the d isplay .
.,. Press the control button
(D ¢ fig. 148 on the
MMI control console. Parking mode 2 appears.
.,. Back up and align yo ur vehicle so the b lue area
@ borders on the rear end of the vehicle or on
the parking spot line. The blue area represents
an extension of the vehicle's outline by approxi­
mately 16 ft (S meters) to the rear. The long
s ide of the blue area should be on the curb. The
en tire blue area must fit into the parki ng spot.
P ark ing aid
.,. With the vehicle stopped, turn the steering
wheel to the right as far as it will go.
.,. Back into the parking spot until the b lue curve
touches the curb¢
fig. 149. Stop the vehicle.
.,. With the vehicle stopped, turn the steering
wheel to the left as far as it will go .
.,. Continue to back into the parki ng spot unt il the
veh icle is parked parallel to the c urb. @ marks
the rear bumpe r. Stop the ve hicle when the red
orientat ion line @ borders an object¢
& ­
Keep an eye on the front of yo ur vehicle while
doing this ¢(D.
Parking next to obstacles
When there is an obstacle (such as a wall) next to
th e parking spot, choose a spot with mo re space
o n t he sides. Pos ition the long side of the b lue
area so that there is sufficient space from the
curb. The area must not be on the curb. You wi ll
also need to start turning the steering wheel
much earlier. There should be a sufficient
amount of space between the curb and the blue
curve, and the blue curve¢
fig. 149 must not
touch the curb.
A WARNING
-The rearview camera does not show the en­
tire area behind the vehicle¢
page 125 ,
fig. 142.
Watch o ut especially fo r small ch il­
d ren and animals. The rearview came ra can­
not a lways detect them, posing risk of an
accide nt!
- P lease note that o bjects no t touching the

they rea lly are (for e xamp le, the bumper of
a parked vehicle, a trailer h itch, or the rear
of a truck). In this case, you shou ld not use
the help lines to help with parking, which poses danger of an accident!
