Did I get a babied RS7?

[RAUDIRS6]

My VCDS cable came today and after I made my changes, I wondered how many launches it had on it. Honestly, I fully expected the worst. What do you guys think about these numbers and how do yours compare?

Edit: Mine is a 2018 with about 33,000 miles. Should have added that from the start.

You might of got someone who just wanted the prestige of owning a RS7 without being a nut case. Like those people who buy Porsche 911 and do 60 miles an hour and never open it up.... Just something to ponder [emoji848]

84% Economical, but floored it from light to light!

I see 1032 hours of drive time, but how many miles are on it?

[RAUDIRS6]

33,000

which VCDS options does one need to select to get this data? Asking for a friend.... :)

[RAUDIRS6]

Should be Engine 01, Advanced Measurments, then select until your heart is content. :)

Here's my numbers below. 2015 RS7. 52k miles. Frequently driven like it was stolen...definitely not babied.

My RS6 2016 9877 miles

Dynamic shift program = launch control?

[Gravy Train]

No, and launch control on the RS7 is quite different from that of the S6/S7's DCT clutch dumps. The ZF8HP will activate AMAX through a launch procedure, but I doubt such a counter exists for that trans. It's simply an increase in line pressure through the shifts, and the "launch" is nothing more than a brake stand to flash the converter.

Enjoy the low miles and fresh-feeling car!

I believe you can see the launch counter on the ZF with the HP Tuners software, haven't connected that device in ages but do remember poking around in there when flashing Melen's tune.

Enjoy the low miles and fresh-feeling car!That makes sense. I was excited when I saw 1 and almost immediately deflated when I saw that's what others have for that value too. I'll just tell myself it was babied. [emoji3] Keep these coming though. This is a fun post.

A quick search showed a price of around $1,300. I pressed close on that window. Quickly.

The device is $400 https://www.hptuners.com/products/

It's been a number of years so probably other ways to get to the same info now. At least I would hope so, ages ago we had several die hard drag owners and one of them in particular dads rs7 I think it was had hit some limit in AMAX launches and APR couldn't figure it out at the time.

Ability to flash an endpoint serial number varies but you don't need credits to connect and log. Looked at some screenshots I had, think the max counter here is similar to the very early days of having a limit on launches for the DSG that various flashes raises and or resets the number. Stock program vs. modified.
