It's a bit too SUV-like for me. Huge fender gaps, excessive height (I suppose they needed room for the battery).. I was hoping for something more like my S5 Sportback.

During the free trial, I rarely used any of it's features, so I just let it expire. If I need to see what an area looks like, I'll pull over and look it up on my phone. I won't pay for any...

S5 Sportback air vent temperature = HOT

Open windows weather mid 80's. Except on the highway, where it gets too noisy, so I close the windows, and notice that the air temp from the dash vents is HOT. Must be nearly 100f.
This is with...

If anyone decides to add a direct TPMS system, do NOT get the type where the sensors strap to the center of the wheel with a long hose clamp. I had one of these, and the tire shops would break at...

Hmm, I don't recall the seat belt tightening, or the pre-sense beep, and had plenty of space in front of me. I suppose someone may have approached my rear end too fast and triggered it though.

Relatively easy on this one, with the intake ports up top. It's going to be a bit more painful in my '18 S5 with the intakes on the opposite sides of the heads.

Takes too much time to copy it all into the jukebox. I just use that for a few "special" pieces. The rest is on an SD card, which is the quickest way to move your music into the car. Plus, you...

I just start the car with the garage door closed, then open it. No one is going to get CO poisoning from 10 seconds of indoor running.

My oil level never changed at all up to the first change. Only way gas can be getting into the oil is past the piston rings. Dealer should do a compression test.

MMI screen shot?

Has anyone found out how to make the 2018 MMI save a screen shot to SD card? One dealer rep says it was covered in training, but didn't recall how to do it.
