Audi drive select (drive
settings)
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
Drive select makes it possible to experience dif-
ferent types of vehicle characteristics in one vehi-
cle. With different driving modes, the driver can
switch the setting, for example from sporty to
comfortable. In the Individual mode, the set-
tings can be adjusted to your personal preferen-
ces. This makes it possible to combine settings
such as a sporty drivetrain setting with comforta-
ble steering.


Using Audi drive select incorrectly can lead to
collisions, other accidents and serious inju-
ries.

Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select

The vehicle setup in each mode depends on the
vehicle's features.
Engine and automatic transmission
Depending on the mode, the engine and auto-
matic transmission respond more quickly or ina
more balanced manner to accelerator pedal
movements.
Suspension control (Audi magnetic ride)*
The suspension control uses sensors to record in-
formation regarding steering movements, brak-
ing and acceleration operations by the driver, as
well as information about the road surface, driv-
ing speed, and load. With drive select, you can
adjust the suspension control to sporty (dynam-
ic), comfortable (comfort) or balanced (auto).
96

Steering
The power steering adapts. Indirect steering that
moves easily as in comfort mode is especially
suited to long drives on a highway. The dynamic
mode provides sporty, direct steering.
Engine sound*
The engine sound adapts to the current mode
and can be subtle to sporty.


— Certain vehicle settings will be reset when
the ignition is switched off.
— In some models, the maximum vehicle
speed can only be reached in the auto and
dynamic modes.
Selecting the driving mode
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
You can choose between comfort, auto, dynamic
and individual.

ZA\ WARNING
— The demands of traffic require your full at-
tention. Always read the chapter
=> page 110, Traffic safety information.
— The route calculated by the navigation sys-
tem is a driving recommendation. Follow
the traffic regulations that are applicable in
the country where you are operating the ve-
hicle. In the event that the driving directions
contradict traffic regulations, always follow
the traffic regulations applicable in the
country where you are operating the vehicle
to reduce the risk of an accident.

(i) Tips
— You can find information about importing a
map update to your MMI using an SD card
at my.audi.com.
— Snow and obstructions on the GPS antenna
or interference caused by trees and large
buildings can impair satellite reception and
affect the system's ability to determine the
vehicle position. Several deactivated or mal-
functioning satellites can also interrupt GPS
reception and affect the system's ability to
determine the vehicle position.

If the tire pressure monitoring indicator
appears
Applies to: vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitoring System in-
dicator
The tire pressure indicator in the instrument
cluster informs you if the tire pressure is too low
or if there is a system malfunction.
Using the ABS sensors, the tire pressure monitor-
ing system compares the tire tread circumfer-
ence and vibration characteristics of the individu-
al tires. If the pressure changes in one or more
tires, this is indicated in the Infotainment system
display with an indicator light (J and a message.
If only one tire is affected, the location of that
tire will be indicated.
The tire pressures must be stored in the Infotain-
ment system again each time the pressures
change (switching between partial and full load
pressure) or after changing or replacing a tire on
your vehicle > page 232. The tire pressure moni-
toring system only monitors the tire pressure you
have stored. Refer to the tire pressure label for
the recommended tire pressure for your vehicle
=> page 224, fig. 178.
Tire tread circumference and vibration character-
istics can change and cause a tire pressure warn-
ing if:
— The tire pressure in one or more tires is too low
— The tire has structural damage
— The tire was replaced or the tire pressure was
changed and it was not stored > page 232
— The spare tire” is installed
Indicator lights
If the @ indicator light turns on, there is a loss
of pressure in at least one tire .> A\ Check the
tires and replace if necessary. Check/correct the
pressures of all four tires and store the pressure
again in the Infotainment system > page 232.
iis Tire pressure: malfunction! See owner's
manual
ft oS appears after switching the ignition on or
while driving and the @ indicator light in the in-
strument cluster blinks for approximately one
minute and then stays on, there is system mal-
232
function. Try to store the correct tire pressures
=> page 232. In some cases, you must drive for
several minutes after storing the pressures until
the indicator light turns off. If the indicator light
does turn off or turns on again after a short peri-
od of time, drive to an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility immediately to
have the malfunction corrected.

Z\ WARNING
— If the tire pressure indicator appears in the
display,
reduce your speed immediately and
avoid any hard steering or braking maneu-
vers. Stop as soon as possible and check the
tires and their pressure.
— The driver is responsible for maintaining the
correct tire pressure. You must check the
tire pressure regularly.
— Under certain conditions (such as a sporty
driving style, winter conditions, or unpaved
roads), the tire pressure monitoring system
indicator may be delayed.
— Do not use run-flat tires on your vehicle. Us-
ing them when not permitted can lead to ve-
hicle damage or accidents.
(i) Tips
— The tire pressure monitoring system can al-
so stop working when there is an ESC mal-
function.

— Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction.
— The tire pressure monitoring system in your
Audi was calibrated with “Audi Original
Tires” > page 227. Audi recommends using
these tires.
Storing tire pressures
Applies to: vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitoring System in-
dicator
If the tire pressure changes or a tire is replaced,
it must be confirmed in the Infotainment sys-
tem.
> Before storing the tire pressures, make sure the
tire pressures in all four tires meet the speci-
fied values and are adapted to the load
=> page 223.
