I thought for the sake of anyone searching the web for this issue / the solution I would provide an update; 6 months have passed since Audi Assist attending , there have been zero false alerts since, so I consider this to be 'fixed'. Thanks for your help. The key was to have an Audi (not...

Thank you for that. My previous car was a 3.0TDI A4 Avant B7, I had her over ten years and aside from the (at the time) normal inlet manifold issue it was bullet proof, hence why I kept her so long / for 150,000 miles! Changing cars, always stressful for me, as I like to things 'right'...

Evening The Audi Assist (VW/Audi van vs normal AA) came at 9am today and was with the car for almost 1.5hrs. Essentially he checked all he could and found no faults logged (the last activation was a couple of days ago). The alarm activation memory reason for the last false alert said ‘lost...

As a follow up I just spoke to Audi Assist , I was given the option of an AA vehicle today or a specialist VW / Audi one tmrw....so I've gone for the latter. I will post a further follow up as it may help others.

Thanks both. Did you just phone Audi Assist and are they happy to attend vs you taking it into a dealship? Regards

Hi I’ve had my 2018 S4 for around 8 weeks now (purchased approved used complete with 24month warranty). The alarm has, as of this evening, triggered three times for apparently no reason. On each activation (three different locations) no more than 2-3 minutes have passed since locking the car...

Well scrolling past 'efficiency' does indeed reinstate Stop/Start (not sure if speed of scroll impacts) . I think (as I use the * steering wheel button) I must have been scrolling past efficiency to move to / from Dynamic and Auto modes. I cannot see any symbol on my VC...

Thank you . Is the dashboard symbol on the virtual dashboard? I think I saw Carista (?) can code it out but I worried re my 2 yr Audi warranty being voided. I tested today (same journey) put it in dynamic, checked 'off' and drove both ways (office and back) without issue. I think my...

Reading some other threads I wonder if scrolling past ‘Efficiency’ mode in drive select possibly turns it back on…I will experiment tmrw!

Hi Frustratingly only 4 weeks into my S4 ownership (main dealer purchased , complete with 2yr warranty) I seem to have an issue with the (annoying) start stop system. I am in the habit of turning the system off after starting the car. A week or so back when I was moving it on my slightly...

Thanks, I've currently got an old fleece jacket in the left side void with the compressor wrapped inside the jacked to stop rattles! It all just looks a little more fragile/less roomy than my old B7!

Hi I purchased a 2018 S4 Avant a few weeks ago (quite a change from the B7 3.0TDI S-line it replaced!). In my B7 there was both a mini boot under the rear tray before the spare wheel compartment (where I put a spare fleece coat and jump leads) and also a storage compartment on the...

It took 4hrs but it is done and was working on the short drive home (along with POIs overlaid, incl speed cameras I've added). In the end I was not charged anything Software version has changed from 1177 to 1329. I am not clear what licence the selling dealing paid for in the end, nor if I...

Well I've been sat at the dealer all morning. Initially told they were having issues loading the software update (after 3hrs of waiting). I was then told video the audicam email they send you 'Reqs update to goggle maps due to licence period ended, purchase of extension of licence via my audi...

Thanks for everyone who has commented in this thread, which I stumbled across via Google. I purchased a 3/2018 UK registered (2018 build, according to VIN de-coding sites) S4 Avant a couple of weeks ago (with VC). I have been trying to understand the various tech equipment and eventually...
