Note
You can select the sport program for gear changes on vehicles
with an automatic gearbox* by activating the DYNAMIC mode. There
is no S position on the selector lever.
You may hear a noise on vehicles with dynamic steering* when
you start or stop the engine. This is no cause for concern.
Applies to vehicles: with Audi drive select
Selecting the driving mode
You can choose between COMFORT, AUTO, DYNAMIC and
INDIVIDUAL*.
The control is next to the selector gate ⇒ fig. 174 on vehi-
cles with sound system, or in the centre console ⇒ fig. 175
on vehicles with MMI*.
– Switch on the ignition.
– Press the left or right arrow button until the desired
mode lights up in red.
You can change the driving mode while the vehicle is stationary or
moving. If traffic conditions permit, take your foot off the acceler-
ator briefly after you change the mode so that the new mode is also
activated for the engine.
COMFORT
The COMFORT mode alters the vehicle set-up for a more comfort-
able ride. The response of the engine and automatic gearbox* to
accelerator pedal movements is balanced. The steering is light and
indirect* and the suspension control* is set to soft. This setting is
suitable for driving long distances on motorways for example.
AUTO
The overall impression in AUTO mode is of a comfortable but

DYNAMIC
DYNAMIC gives the vehicle a tighter set-up. The engine reacts spon-
taneously to accelerator pedal movements and the steering is
dynamic and direct*. The suspension control* is stiffer and the
automatic gearbox* changes gear at higher engine speeds. This
setting is ideal for performance driving.
INDIVIDUAL*
You can configure this mode on the MMI according to your personal
Fig. 175 Centre preferences.
