Hi guys,

Just trying to gauge, what mode do you use in drive select & why?

My old SQ5 Plus was always in individual & all set to Dynamic apart from gearbox which was auto.

My A6 is a different car & purely looking for economy. Undecided on Eco, Comfort or Auto.

Thanks,

Rappy.

My C7 I used to set to individual but that was only really to get the bitdi noise without having to drive around in dynamic all the time... In the C8, auto all the time for me and I find it does adapt very well to your specific driving style, much quicker than the auto did in the C7. The only thing I would think about is leaving the steering out of auto, I just don't like the variable feel one turn to the next, but that's just me...

Thanks for the reply.

Only a little over 24 hrs in & a day of detailing :-).

Car was in eco when I picked it up & not had time to play with it yet.

Need to have a good look through the menu options.

If I remember well, then in my former C7 I used the following settings:

ACC: Dinamic
Engine: Auto
Gearbox: Dinamic
Air suspension: Comfort
Belt tensioner: Auto
Steering: Comfort

Good luck with your new beauty :)
