    Do you use Individual in Audi Drive Select?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    If so, I am curious what your preferred settings are and why?

    Engine/Transmission
    Air Suspension
    Steering
    Sport Differential
    Engine Sound
    Belt Tensioner


    Thanks,
    Tom

    I do and these are my settings:

    Engine/Transmission - Auto <-- Dynamic is bit too jarring for bumper to bumper traffic around my area but comfort is too lazy so auto is a good compromise
    Air Suspension - Comfort <-- For cruising and city driving I prefer high ride so that I don't have to worry much about scrapping the front lip
    Steering - Dynamic <-- I prefer heavy and direct steering at all time
    Sport Diff - Comfort <-- No need to ask sport diff to actively transferring the torque in the traffic or just cruising
    Engine Sound - Comfort <-- The rumbling sound while cruising is a little much so I keep it quiet
    Belt Tensioner - Comfort <-- No crazy tossing myself around left and right so I like the belt to be a bit loose

    Of course for spirit driving in certain routes I will put everything in Dynamic.

    2016 RS7 here:

    Engine/Transmission - auto or dynamic
    Air Suspension - dynamic
    Steering - comfort (dynamic is way too artificially heavy)
    Sport Differential - auto
    Engine Sound - comfort (I pulled the two plugs on my sport exhaust, so don't need amped up sound)

    Everything set to dynamic except for suspension which is in comfort mode. I also have exhaust valves permanently open so I don't need to drive in "S" mode to get the beautiful exhaust note :)

    Due to the shitty winter roads here, I set everything to dynamic but the suspension set to auto. This lets me keep most of the dynamic benefits but account for the potholes and rough stretches with some relief.

    I read in a car magazine recently that the steering adjustments only change the amount of effort required and do nothing for the "vague" steering feel. I concur with this finding and have mine on Comfort as I see no advantage to increased effort.

    Adaptive Cruise Control, engine sound, and air suspension are set to Dynamic. Everything else is on Auto.
