    40tdi - mild hybrid actually do anything?

    cheers - have learnt something here, just done a bit more reading based on your post too. I thought all MHEV systems included power assist, turns out some of them don't - Audi 12V being one of them

    40tdi - mild hybrid actually do anything?

    Makes sense, cheers - I kinda get the regen bit, I had a plug-in hybrid before the audi Though these cars do have an electric motor in the drivetrain somewhere right? when are these being deployed on the 40tdi?

    40tdi - mild hybrid actually do anything?

    Does anyone know what the mild hybrid system actually does in the 40TDI? I've read more than 1 article and can't see anything that specifically talks about anything other than features available in any modern diesel i.e. stop/start coasting at speed - that's just the engine being turned off at...

    40 TDI gearbox lag - officially a uk software update?

    Yeah I find that too - I find that putting it in manual mode helps even more. As I move off I then swap back to drive mode. It's all a bit of a faff though - I've emailed dealer to try and get a definitive answer to the software update question

    Avant 40tdi sline- load area fixing kit standard

    Out of interest does anyone know the part/accessory number for the 'Load Area Fixing Kit'? can't find it anywhere - would like to quote to dealer to not give them the excuse of 'I don't know what you mean'

    40 TDI gearbox lag - officially a uk software update?

    Thanks Rich - I suspect mine may need same updates, do you know if there's a way I can tell from the car what updates it's had, or is a dealer call job?

    40 TDI gearbox lag - officially a uk software update?

    I mean in general, when you're pulling away from a standard start - there's a good 1.5 to 2 second lag from pressing the accelerator to the car actually moving off. It's clearly the transmission not the engine - is when the engine is already started i.e. stop/start turned off

    Avant 40tdi sline- load area fixing kit standard

    My new to me 2019 40 tdi s-line has not come with the load area fixing kit for the rear even though it has the empty tray underneath floor where it would be stored. could anyone confirm if the kit was meant to be standard on this car in the uk? I bought from Audi so might have some recourse

    40 TDI gearbox lag - officially a uk software update?

    I should state my car is a 2019 model. Maybe abmat's car being a 2021 already has update? The problem is all over the net - too severe an issue to be missed. Out of interest, do you always travel in dynamic and sport abmat?

    myaudi app thinks it's not setup - website ok

    Anyone seen this problem before?: I have MyAudi on my iphone and seems to work fine - shows location of car, I can open it, lock it etc. Though in the app it still says 'Some vehicle features are not yet set up. Follow the next steps to complete set up' - then when I click the 'complete...

    40 TDI gearbox lag - officially a uk software update?

    Hi there, back in an Audi after a while. I'm 2 or 3 days in to a C8 40 TDI Avant and although it's nice, of course I've already come across the awful lag from a standing start with the s-tronic gearbox. I'm already starting to work around it with turning off coasting, switching to sport for...

    Do it. S4 is a different proposition to the golf R. Not owned a golf r to be fair though a few recent fast golfs. S4 drivetrain, luxury proposition and refinement quite different - is a great car. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
