Audi drive select (vehicle
set-up functions)
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
Drive select allows you to use different set-ups
on your vehicle. The four modes efficiency*, com­
fort, auto and dynamic allow the driver, for ex­
ample, to change from a sporty mode to a more
comfortable one via the �.:i.l\:'I button in the centre
console or via the infotainment system. In addi­
tion, the individual mode allows you to adapt the
vehicle set-up to suit your personal driving style.
For example, you might choose to combine a
more dynamic engine set-up with a lighter steer­
ing response.
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
The possible vehicle set-up in each mode de­
pends on which equipment is installed on your
vehicle.
Engine and automatic gearbox*
The response of the engine and automatic gear­
box* to accelerator pedal movements will be
more spontaneous or balanced, depending on
which mode you select. In efficiency* mode the
automatic gearbox* selects the next gear at low­
er engine speeds and the coasting mode is activa-
100 ted
¢ page 82. This helps to reduce fuel con­
sumption.
Suspension control (Audi magnetic ride)*
The suspension control uses sensors to collect in­
formation on steering movements, braking and
acceleration input by the driver, road surface
quality, road speed and vehicle loading. With
drive select you can choose between dynamic and
comfort-oriented suspension set-ups (dynamic
and comfort modes), or opt for a more balanced
set-up (auto mode).
Steering
The degree of power assistance can be varied.
The light, indirect steering response in comfort
mode is particularly suitable on long motorway
trips, for instance. The steering has a tighter,
more direct feel in dynamic mode.
Air conditioner*
The air conditioner runs in a particularly econom­
ical mode when the efficiency* setting is selec­
ted. When this function is selected, eco* is shown
in the display of the automatic air conditioner.
Cruise control system*
The acceleration response is particularly econom­
ical in efficiency* mode.
Engine sound*
The sound of the engine is matched to the selec­
ted mode and ranges from subdued to dynamic.
(QJ} Note
- On some models the vehicle's maximum
speed can only be obtained in the auto and
dynamic modes.
- On vehicles with manual gearbox, an E ap­
pears in the gear-change indicator when ef­
ficiency* mode is activated.
-Applies to vehicles with manual gearbox: If
you press the accelerator right down past
the point of resistance in efficiency* mode,
the engine power is automatically control­
led to give your vehicle maximum accelera-
tion. ..,.

Power management
This system helps to ensure reliable
starting
The power management controls the distribu­
tion of electrical energy and thus helps to ensure
that there is always enough power available to
start the engine.
If a vehicle with a conventional electrical system
is left parked for a long time, the vehicle battery
will gradually lose its charge because certain
electrical equipment (such as the immobiliser)
continues to draw current even when the ignition
is off. In some cases there may not be enough
power available to start the engine.
Your vehicle is equipped with an intelligent pow­
er management system to control the distribu­
tion of electrical energy. This significantly im­
proves reliability when starting the engine, and
also prolongs the life of the vehicle battery.
The main functions incorporated in the power
management system are battery diagnosis, re-
118 sidual
current management and dynamic power
management.
Battery diagnosis
The battery diagnosis function constantly regis­
ters the condition of the vehicle battery. Sensors
detect the battery voltage, battery current and
battery temperature. This enables the system to
calculate the current power level and charge con­
dition of the vehicle battery.
Residu al current management
The residual current management reduces power
consumption while the vehicle is parked. It con­
trols the supply of power to the various electrical
components while the ignition is switched off.
The system takes the battery diagnosis data into
consideration.
Depending on the power level of the vehicle bat­
tery, the individual electrical components are
switched off one after the other to prevent the
vehicle battery from losing too much charge and
to ensure that the engine can be started reliably.
Dynamic power management
While the vehicle is moving, this function distrib­
utes the available power to the various electrical
components and systems according to their re­
quirements. It ensures that on-board systems do
not consume more electrical power than is being
generated, and thus maintains the maximum
possible vehicle battery power level.
.
1 Note
- The power management system is not able
to overcome the given physical limits.
Please remember that the power and life of
the vehicle battery are limited.
- If the indicator lamp ri'.J ¢ page 15 appears,
the starting ability may be impaired.
Points to remember
Starting ability has first priority.
Short trips, city traffic and low temperatures all
place a heavy load on the vehicle battery. In
these conditions a large amount of power is

Vl
CX) consumed,
but only a small amount is supplied.
The situation is also critical if electrical equip­
ment is in use when the engine is not running. In
this case power is consumed when none is being
generated.
In these situations you will be aware that the
power management system is intervening to con­
trol the distribution of electrical power.
When the vehicle is parked for long periods
If you do not drive your vehicle for a period of
several days or weeks, the power management
will gradually shut off the on-board systems one
by one, or reduce the amount of current they are
using. This limits the amount of power consumed
and helps to ensure reliable starting even after a
long period. Certain convenience features, such
as remote control unlocking, may not be availa­
ble. These functions will be restored when you
switch on the ignition and start the engine.
With the engine switched off
If you listen to the radio or use the other info­
tainment functions when the engine is not run­
ning, this will discharge the vehicle battery.
The infotainment display will show a warning
message before the battery power drops to a lev­
el where the starting ability is impaired. This
message warns you that the system you are using
will soon be switched off automatically. You
should therefore start the engine if you wish to
continue using the system.
When the engine is running
Although the alternator generates electrical
power, the vehicle battery can still become dis­
charged while the vehicle is being driven. This can
occur when a lot of power is being consumed but
only a small amount supplied, especially if the
vehicle battery is not fully charged initially.
To restore the necessary energy balance, the sys­
tem will then temporarily shut off the electrical
components that are using a lot of power, or re­
duce the current they are consuming. Heating
systems in particular use a large amount of elec­
trical power. If you notice, for instance, that the
seat heating* or the rear window heater is not Intelligent
technology
working, they may have been temporarily switch­
ed off or regulated to a lower heat output. These
systems will be available again as soon as suffi­
cient electrical power is available.
You may also notice that the engine runs at a
slightly faster idling speed. This is quite normal,
and no cause for concern. The increased idling
speed allows the alternator to meet the greater
power requirement and charge the vehicle bat­
tery at the same time.
Information saved in the
control units
The vehicle is fitted in the factory with electronic
control units that, among other things, control
the engine and the gearbox. The control units al­
so monitor the exhaust system and the airbags.
The control units continually analyse data rele­
vant to the vehicle while you are driving. In the
event of faults or anomalies in the vehicle data,
only these data are saved. As a rule, faults are
shown by the warning lamps in the instrument
cluster.
Data saved in the control units can only be read
and analysed with special equipment.
A qualified workshop is only able to recognise
and deal with faults by using the relevant saved
data. Among other things, the saved data may
contain the following information:
- Data relating to the engine and the gearbox
-Speed
- Direction of travel
- Braking force
- Seat belt warning system data
The control units installed will not under any cir­
cumstances record conversations in the vehicle.
Event data recorder
Your vehicle is not equipped with an event data
recorder.
In an event data recorder, information about
the
vehicle is temporarily saved. In the event of an
accident, you can therefore obtain detailed infor-
mation about the course of events. On vehicles ...,.
