Not sure how you did this.

Could you please explain in more detail? How much lower did the car go when stationary?

SQ8 - Adjusting height for easy access

Is it possible to adjust the height of the suspension to lower automatically to the lowest position when the engine is switched off? This would facilitate easy entry and exit for the vertically...

Should be no issues, but traffic prevents full enjoyment of sport mode.

I tend to keep it in drive and use the paddles when I need a little extra oomph. Using sport mode all the time kills gas mileage. But when traffic is light sport mode is great!

I don't think there is any "optimal" setting that is optimal for everyone. We

all hear differently so choose the setting that works best for you. It is also very dependent on the recording quality. On bright recordings I have to turn the treble down, on others I turn the bass...

The TIP is pretty slow in 1-2 and 2-3 gear changes in drive mode,

but feels subjectively faster is sport mode. The real pleasure though is using the paddles which give very fast changes.

Agree with most of your other comments except that I don't find the ride...

Where?

In many European markets and in parts of Asia Audi is rated higher and outsells MB and BMW

Agreed - American perception of Audi is puzzling. In Germany Audi is

generally rated higher than MB or BMW. Most other markets rate Audi at least their equal. I believe America is Audi's poorest performing major market in terms of market share.

Audis don't appeal to the broader market so Audi has fewer marginal buyers.

A large percentage of Audi buyers are Audi enthusiasts and don't go looking elsewhere. The acid test will be when the economy improves. You will see other brand sales increasing dramatically, and...

A lot depends on how you drive. My commute is 20 miles of which about

12 miles are freeway. I drive about 80 mph on the freeway, and don't accelerate too aggressively in town. I average about 19mpg overall. I suspect if most of your driving is highway and you keep it...

During this cold spell in Ca., I am missing the heated steering wheel I had in the A8.

It's nice the heated seats warm your ass, but cold fingers stop me feeling warm. I know, I was spoiled.

Just noticed that Side Assist doesn't work in the rain

Message flashed up that the sensors were blocked. Car was clean, but the rain seems to impair their performance.

Yes. first noticed it this week (after over 6K miles), but it could be because

ambient temperatures have dropped. more of a temporary loss of power. Annoying

I was scheduled to have the "power management" update done too, but

dealer was unable to be more specific on what it was for. She also warned me that it would reset all the codes to factory default - which I didn't want to do.
