    Yep, that’s the front Pre sense, I’ve made it a habit to leave plenty of gap for oncoming traffic before attempting to turn right....it’s like something has hit you!

    I believe that's the turn assist working in action haha..
    Audi Q7 turn assist - Audi Technology Portal

    I had it triggered a couple of times both I think were a bit over sensitive.. one time, I was steering into the central area marked with white diagonal stripes because of parked cars on the side, there was a car coming from the other side but plenty of space for both of us to pass (I am not even in its lane).. My Q jolted really hard and pre-sense triangle and loud warning... all very dramatic.. :O

    The other time, I was turning right, found a gap, the coming car was quite far, I put my foot down and the car braked, kind of like I stalled it.. should have passed safely but the car thought differently... but hey, at least the system works right?

    Same as inchshort, now I just leave bigger gaps, slow down more.. overall becoming a safer driver maybe lol?

    It was a valid intervention this time. After all, the car can’t see the other cars indicators or where the driver was looking :-)

    Hello.
    Do you know how to deactivate Rear Cross Traffik Alert (RCTA) in ABS unit?
    I don`t like how RCTA works (too many fails), so I deactivated it in 3C unit (main side assist unit), system not work now, but in ABS unit I got error code (RCTA data not present in databus or something like that). I need to know which bit in ABS coding activate|deactivate RCTA.
    Thank you

    Hi, I'm new to this forum (however active from a number of others), found this thread from a search.

    I've installed mirrors with LED, bumper radars and the connecting loom to my S5 b8.5. Spent hours today in VCDS hunting through CAN blocks and trying to work out the coding side but I've been defeated until further knowledge gained.

    Is there anyone here that can assist with guidance?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    I apologise if I'm in the wrong place I'm a newbie, but I too am interested in fitting the Side Assist. I had it on my last Q5 but it was missed off my new Q5 TFSI e. I'm a bit concerned about removing the rear bumper (I have the folding tow hook) and the door cards to get at the electronics, although maybe my door controllers are suitable as I have folding mirrors ? I also wonder how the wiring loom gets inside the car from behind the bumper, and taking that off looks a mammoth task
    The door cards will have to come off I assume to run the wiring up to the door mirrors.
    Is there a detailed description of how to tackle this what looks to me to be an enormous job and is there a kit available ?

    You have to contact andyhud007. He is the master of Audi retrofitting.
    PM him and I am sure that he will reply and will tell you what is needed to retrofit Side Assist and if your door controllers are suitable or require the replacement.
