    Tried my First Launch control today

    Hi all, I think I've finally gotten to the bottom of this!! It appears that I needed to turn hill hold assist off! It now holds the revs at around 2.5k and makes that lovely 'bouncing off the limiter' sound. Awesome!

    Tried my First Launch control today

    Hmm how strange. I'm doing exactly the same and all I get is the revs rise to 1500rpm but the car is struggling against the brakes. Nothing like LC where the revs intentionally rise to 3-4k and hold there.

    Tried my First Launch control today

    Update: I can confirm this doesn't work on my car. Tried again today, once with ESC in sport (single press) and once with ESC off (press & hold). I even tried the car in Dynamic, as well as not in Dynamic but just in 'S'. Nothing.

    Tried my First Launch control today

    Thanks for your reply. Do you mean ESC in sport (single button press) or ESC off (press + hold)? Did you find the revs go up to 3-4k? Any feeling of the car pulling against the brakes?

    Tried my First Launch control today

    Hi all, Since this post has been brought up again I may as well ask here... Does my A4 B9 2.0 TFSI s-tronic 190 have LC? I've tried the procedure outlined above but all that happened was the car struggled against the brakes to about 1500rpm then gave up. To be clear... Engine was def at...

    Freewheeling/coasting then stop/ start engine

    Hi all, as the post above mentions, this feature is a new-ish technology called MHEV. Or Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle. It's not like your usual hybrid vehicle where the electric motor can be used to drive the vehicle. It's more a feature consisiting of an enhanced starter motor & battery which...

    Which fuel? Supermarket or not?

    Yep, my mistake! Cheers! Also, I can confirm that the sticker on the inside of the 2.0TFSI's cap reads 95RON.

    Which fuel? Supermarket or not?

    The contributors to this thread have helped me make my decision - that I will happily use supermarket fuel. As you've said there, it was more the convenience of whichever station is near me more than anything. And I have a sainsburys petrol station quite close by .

    Hill Hold Assist Standard Fit?

    Not sure if you're still looking for an answer on this, but I can confirm that there is a second button next to the Parking Brake button. And it came standard on mine...I didn't specify HHA.

    Which fuel? Supermarket or not?

    If in doubt, get the manual out...which is what I've just done lol. So for anyone interested (in the petrol models), take a look at the attached screenshot. It sort of contradicts itself by first saying that 95 RON is recommended, but then it says 98 RON is recommended but you can use 95 if 98...

    Which fuel? Supermarket or not?

    Hi guys, So I've recently been wondering if there's any difference between standard supermarket fuel, or standard branded fuel (BP, Shell, Esso etc). To be clear, I'm not talking about super-fuels here (V-Power etc). Any knowledge on the matter? Id be keen to hear from 2.0 TFSI owners too...

    2.0 Tfsi fuel consumption

    Has anyone got any knowledge of the start stop system whilst driving? I've noticed that mine will do the following when going down hill with my foot off the accelerator... 1. Cut off the engine so the Rev needle goes to "ready" until the engine is needed again 2. Disengage the gearbox so...

    2.0 Tfsi fuel consumption

    Ok so I have a 2018 2.0 TFSI S-tronic S-line 190... I've just done a round trip from Leicester to Beccles and back again. 135m each way and that's entirely A roads & dual carriage ways, so a lot of starting/stopping & slowing down for roundabouts etc. It was just me in the car, although the...

    Apple Car play and a 2nd phone

    For anyone reading this thread who may be helped by this...I use Google Music and can confirm that the standard MMI Bluetooth audio interface pulls in all track data, album track listing and full playlists quite nicely.

    Apple Car play and a 2nd phone

    Haha I get what you mean but don't worry, it was crystal clear! Thanks for the info, hopefully I'll get it to work that way. Incidentally, can I ask what you disliked about Android Auto?

    Apple Car play and a 2nd phone

    I actually have a similar question to the OP, however I'd like my personal phone (which is Android) connected via Android Auto for all of my media, but would need my work iPhone connected to the bluetooth for phone calls. Does anyone have any experience achieving this? Also, ignoring Android...

    Audi Connect

    Ok cool, I guess it's just a waiting game now then. Thanks for letting us know. Look forward to hearing what they say on Friday. I actually ended up calling Audi Milton Keynes yesterday who said they'll call me back for some support today... But that might be unnecessary now. Although there is...

    Audi Connect

    Hmm must be a bug in the verification process. Did he give you a number you could call for website/verification issues? Or did he mean call the dealership?

    Audi Connect

    I've just tried to enter my PIN into the car and it accepted it however I'm not down as the key user of the vehicle. For that you need a 10 digit vehicle code which is apparently found on a tag attached to your key. I didn't get this tag with either of my keys. I just spoke to Audi who said...
