The small compartment under the front of the seat was possibly designed as storage of a small umbrella. That's where I keep one and it's extremely convenient to access. Great video.
Target sells mini umbrellas that fit like a glove in the little under seat compartment so I have one in each front seat! I have used them a total of zero times in two years but it feels nice to know they are there ya know?
I’m stationed in Germany and when I bought my car I found safety vests from the dealership or previous owner in the compartments. Good place to put them. We are required to put them on before exiting the vehicle in case of a accident or break down on the autobahn.
@8:23 On European C7's those compartments contain the yellow High Vis jackets in case of emergencies, when parked on the side of the road. In some countries in the EU these things are mandated to have in your car at all times
I noticed the hooks in my trunk about a week after i got the car. I thought to myself "this is German engineering at it's finest"... Also, wish there was a way to keep the mirror moving down when in reverse while also keeping the defrosters on. Great video, learned some new stuff!
Not sure if you saw it, but if you enable lap timer in OBD, it also shows colored indicator when to change speeds in your HUD display. It only shows there when the car in Dynamic mode and you drive fast and bring RPM to 4k and up. I saw it once and it's pretty cool, a feature from RS 6.
Tip #8 under seat - my 2016 Prestige w massaging seat function does not have this. Maybe the space is for the extra motors and Audi decided why not provide a compartment on other seats? Great video! Almost EVERYTHING in this video applies to my C7.5 and I didn’t know any of it other than the side mirror settings!
Hey man! I do really like ur channel here! Thank u for all the knowledge u share w us. I'm from Brazil and I wanna buy an A7 S-line but here we don't have this digital HVAC and rear seats HVAC optional. In Brazil we only had two-zone analogic HVAC offered, so I intend to import all equipments needed to convert my A7 to 4-zone HVAC like your car. Is it possible to make a video explaining how ur system works? I wanna learn, so I can do it here
Did you know you can make your foot well temperature slightly different than your cabin temp? in the MMI there is an offset. I usually kept mine a couple of degrees warmer year round.
Plenty of people have done it... Just have to find a wiring diagram for the tail lights, or play around with the wires till you get the desired effect.
That little compartment under the drivers seat is for a small umbrella or in the US, a weapon. My personal preference is an unsheathed bayonet or diver's knife
@@AudiC7Owners much appreciated and did you do anything to the cold air intake and if so....which one do you recommend....im thinking of going with the RS7 air box with a silicone throttle body tube???

If you check out our recent videos you can see my current intake setup. I did the rs7 for a bit but then moved to a modified oem airbox. The exhaust on these cars is the hardest thing to get right. Drone/rasp is always an issue unless you really do some work. It gets even worse after you get test pipes installed. Most people buy the AWE touring exhaust, but I like my valvetronic exhaust from Cende because when the valves are closed it is extremely quiet, but when they are open it is very very loud. Best of both worlds
yes you can disable door chime. also you can close your boot with remote or inside switch on estate cars and disable permanently auto start stop function.

So I think I mentioned this to you on AZ. There are a few things different on my C7.5 and I think it's due to my HUD. If I enable needle sweep, I have no LEDs on the speedometer. Those are for the cruise control indication, My indication is in the HUD or in the lower part of the dash for cruise control speed. Also the shift light is in the HUD and doesn't appear on the dash. When track mode is enabled, there is a thin red line that occupies the spot where the shift light would appear. When the shift light is enabled and it appears in the HUD, it looks exactly like the dash, colors and all. When the shift light is enabled it goes to the ECU redline, not the TCU. Stage 1 and Stage 2 APR pushed the redline to 7400rpm . I could only get the shift light to light the greens under AMAX in first gear. Now I run a 7250 Berk tune and I can get full indication with the flashing shift indication. I'm not sure if it is directly linked to the LEDs but it looks like it is. You'd have to find an older A6 where the ECU tune doesn't change the LEDs on the tach but has an TCU tune as well and the shift lights on. I'll see if I can find a vid. Might be the difference in my SIMOS 16 ECU.
@@AudiC7Owners Imagine how pissed off I was when I enabled track mode and didn't see the shift light and everybody was just repeating the instructions to me, like I'm an idiot. Now imagine the excitement I felt when I did an AMAX launch and saw the shift light in the HUD briefly. Then add more excitement for when I got the TCU tuned and I could see the whole thing. So this may only be for C7.5 with a HUD. I'm only slightly miffed at no red LED on the speedo for the start up needle sweep, but I have to take the W on the HUD with engine oil temp, speed, drive mode, gear selection and shift light. Track mode is also not supposed to be available on 2012 C7 models because it was an option on the S6/S7/RS6/RS7 which didn't have the 4.0T with track mode until 2013. You seen anything on that?
Good info. These are not c7 specific, and are on most if not all newer platforms. So they could be of use to others as well. B8 b8.5 have them too I know.
Great video, I have a question on timming belt change.i have same car 2017 model with only 114,000 km, When I researched it on line I'm getting different answers when to change.i have also contacted two main dealer's and both with different answers 😂, online I'm seeing 210,000 km regardless of age,main dealer 210,000 or 6 years. What's your thoughts?
Most people agree that you don't change your timing chains until you need to. When you have more than two seconds of chain rattle on a cold start, or any chain rattle at all during a warm start, you should get your timing chains done.
Do you know anything about the feature when the driver seat sence your getting out it shuts off? Cause that makes me mad when I’m stepping in for a second 😭 or when I open the drive door that’s when it shuts off and I don’t press anything
A big tip on how you should use the shopping bag hooks differently - put your entire hand through the bag handles... then grab the tab and slide the handles around BOTH hooks - this stops the bags from slipping off if you go over a bump / around a corner quickly - especially useful for all the traffic "roundabouts" in the UK. Also note that those are called "curry hooks" in the UK - so you can keep your bag of take-away curry in the bag, out of the main cabin. Some vehicles are not quipped with those by default... Audi don't sell them, but VW do - I installed the 2006 Passat ones on an old 2000 Audi A4 B6.
To answer the question about dangers of low oil temperature: Basically, if you don't get the oil temp up high enough you can't burn off all the deposits & water vapor that accumulates from combustion. The water will mix with sulfur & create acids that can damage bearings. You also won't make as much power as you should be.
@@AudiC7Owners CREC and from lap timer. Well shit none of that sounds good. I'm assuming there isn't a way to fix it other than drive harder. It sat around 200 during the summer though
Does anyone know about the foot sensor to open the trunk, or holding down the trunk button on your fob to close it? Also I have a question about the windshield wipers. I messaged you on Instagram about it.
Wish I could send ya a picture... there a little light on the ridge of the door, below that button for blind spot monitoring... looks like a car alarm/ security red light, but I've never seen it go off.. car is still new to me, thanks again
How about the foot wave under the rear bumper to open your trunk? I use this one all the time. Make sure you have your key on you! Also didn’t know you can adjust the mirrors while in reverse, super useful! Thanks man! Subscribed!
The only reason I didn't include the foot wave is because not every C7 has that. A lot of them don't actually. Mine doesn't, so I can't even demonstrate it if I wanted to haha. Thank you!
@@AudiC7Owners oh ok I was making sure our cars are close in year. Now I know I can use what I learn from your channel. Question tho my car is rough at Idol. I have the 2.0 tfsi engine. I’m at 118,899 miles. Basically it shakes when I come to complete stop or in park in the morning when warming up. But once I put in reverse or start to drive it smooths out no shaking at all idk what the heck
@@calijs9420 I talked to an audi tech about that once and they said it was the engine mounts. over time the seals begin to leak the hydraulic fluid that allows for the engine's rattling to be dampened and not translate to the car. No clue how complicated it is to do, I imagine you may need to lift the engine out slightly, but the engine mounts may be your answer.

How did you get the race mode on the drive select?
Check out our video on drive select options from our obd11 tutorial playlist
@@AudiC7Owners is there a way to do it with vagcom?
Yes but I don't know it offhand
I believe the under driver seat compartment is a real glove box, for driving gloves.
Does anyone know about the foot sensor to open the trunk, or holding down the trunk button on your fob to close it? Also I have a question about the windshield wipers. I messaged you on Instagram about it.
And I responded to you lol
What's the little light on drivers door, up by the mirror
The blind spot monitoring button to enable or disable it
Ooooooo
Wish I could send ya a picture... there a little light on the ridge of the door, below that button for blind spot monitoring... looks like a car alarm/ security red light, but I've never seen it go off.. car is still new to me, thanks again
Email it to me. AudiC7Owners@gmail.com
Thanks for the info
Super helpful!
Thank you!
What rear diffuser do you have
It's from Can Auto Performance, 👌🏻
😂😁😂😁 My 07 passat had the cooler feature in the glove box too
My 99 passat had it lol
I didnt know so many of these. Thanks a lot
Happy to help!
Don't event own a audi but enjoyed the video
Thanks man!
How about the foot wave under the rear bumper to open your trunk? I use this one all the time. Make sure you have your key on you!
Also didn’t know you can adjust the mirrors while in reverse, super useful! Thanks man! Subscribed!
The only reason I didn't include the foot wave is because not every C7 has that. A lot of them don't actually. Mine doesn't, so I can't even demonstrate it if I wanted to haha.
Thank you!
Don’t you need the power trunk feature to have the foot wave option? Was this an option on C7.5’s and S6’s?
All C7 trunks open all the way on their own when activated. You need the powered trunk to close them which most do not have.
@@AudiC7Owners I have the powered close trunk c7.5 and have yet to be able to get my foot wave to work
Might need to check the connections behind the bumper
Must be Easter cuz I just found some Easter eggs!
😂
Great informative video 👍🏾
Thank you!
6:50 i've done tht before and i thought i brok the thing lmao cause it wouldnt go back into place

Thank you

Sei un grande!!!
Does anyone notice how much the guy looks like Cisco the guy in Flash series, lol😂
You might need to get your optometrist to check your vision 😂
What year is your C7? The reason I ask is because mine does not have Efficiency and Race for the driving modes.
Those have to be activated via obd11. We have a video for that. But my car is a 2013
*WHERE I CAN FIND SAME REAR bumper SHARK DIFFUSER?*
Canadian Auto Performance
What year is yours? Sorry if I missed it
2013
I found out if you open the door while moving the car slams on brakes lol
Lmao I haven't tried that
Do you have many issues with your car at its mileage?
Nope. Only issues I have tend to be self induced lol
@@AudiC7Owners okay awesome, I was looking at a c7.5 rs7 with 90k on it but was unsure lol
#8 fit with small fire extinguisher
ur car is ds1 tuned right?
I have a 3.0t which ds1 doesn't support. I am IE stage 1 single pulley currently
How can i turn of the Passenger Airbag?
You cannot to my knowledge.
Thank you Sir
Once again great video 💪🏾. I'm just bummed my c7 didn't come with the lap timer 😔
2012's hurt a lot of feelings haha.
What year and model is this car?
2013 Audi A6
What year is your a6?
2013 👍🏻
@@AudiC7Owners oh ok I was making sure our cars are close in year. Now I know I can use what I learn from your channel. Question tho my car is rough at Idol. I have the 2.0 tfsi engine. I’m at 118,899 miles. Basically it shakes when I come to complete stop or in park in the morning when warming up. But once I put in reverse or start to drive it smooths out no shaking at all idk what the heck
@@calijs9420 I talked to an audi tech about that once and they said it was the engine mounts. over time the seals begin to leak the hydraulic fluid that allows for the engine's rattling to be dampened and not translate to the car. No clue how complicated it is to do, I imagine you may need to lift the engine out slightly, but the engine mounts may be your answer.
@@joshuabennett7546 thanks for the info, once I get time I’ll have to get it checked out
And the battery is under the spare tire and its huge.
