I am a fellow Calgarian in waiting for my 2024 RS6 expected in the spring from Glenmore Audi. Quick question: can you permanently disable driver aids like the lane change assist or do they reactivate each time you turn off/start the car?
Congratulations! What spec did you go with? The driver assistance can all be set in the MMI and then remembered on start-up. The only thing I’m not sure is whether lane assist stays active on cruise control regardless but as the setting is in the MMI I’m fairly sure that can be set and forget as well. So far the only thing I’ve encountered that doesn’t stick is the driving modes. If you want to catch-up when you have the car, let me know!
Thanks! Will definitely reach out. We could do a meet, be an interesting video too to compare two different builds - mine is on the conservative side, Daytona silver, cognac interior, 22 inch wheels same as yours but in grey, plus the 4 wheel steering option
Thx for this super useful on the winter prep. Can pls tell me exactly which Nokians you’re using ? Size, model. I’m a Nokian fan and wanted studded but none available in Calgary in size for the RS6.
Great update clip. Welcome to the New Year! I am keeping an eager eye on RS6 clips currently as it's my only source of information on my new purchase (hopefully arriving 3rd quarter of this year). My dealership was pretty vague on specific details, so it made me second guess my choices.. I've gone Daytona Grey, plus red interior + carbon. (I ended up deleting the exterior carbon as I couldn't see the value) and RS Sports suspension. The exhaust system you choose will be of great interest to me as well. My current C63 sounds like a monster, and I feel I will be VERY underwhelmed when I do get to hear the RS6.. Keep up the clips mate! Deano..
Great spec. I will say the exterior carbon looks great. I briefly ran a 2021 RS6 with silver exterior trim and have seen one with the grey, IMO the carbon finish is worth it, it definitely adds a little something. The challenge is if you don't want all the other stuff the carbon optics package comes with, but I'm really happy we went with it. I'll keep you posted on the AWE exhaust, probably won't be for a while but targeting this year. When do you expect to take delivery of yours?
@@S1Races Estimated delivery is July or August. I guess the market for right hand drive is very small, hence the wait time! Side note; exterior carbon deletes gesture control tailgate release too.
@@deanpicken904 Ok I'll be testing that when I get a chance. I'm sure you're right but it seems such an odd thing to be connected to the exterior trim!
Really nice video !! Have one RS6 C8 from 2021 and really happy with . Best regards from Portugal !!
Thanks! The C8 generation has been a great model cycle for the RS6, I wonder if the RS6 GT will ever surface...
