I am guessing using my experience with "braking guard" when the car warns you and brakes if you brake too then it gives you full control assuming the driver is now aware of the situation, so I assume...

You can expect even lower price than that in the US, probably 5-10% lower, I noticed that a few years ago when the Canadian dollar was on a par with the US dollar (Audi's explanation was different...

That makes sense, the Side Assist sensors are located low in the rear bumper and they will be inside the thick mist created by the tires in heavy rain. I read somewhere that SA uses low power radar...

Audi improved ACC and BG in 2013 models (curious, what is your MY?), I have been using both systems for a year now and never had any issues. Brake Guard probably prevented me from rear ending a car...

Hey guys, what do you think, the insurence guy claims that "bend" in the left bumper extension is a "crumple zone" and not a damage. The right side does not have it though. I should check with the...

Rear ended... darn!

I got rear ended last Friday when driving home. I was in slow stop and go traffic when a guy in a 2006 Dodge Magnum ran into my car. My car was moving slowly when it happened, I felt a strong jolt...
