Thanks for sharing your experience. And agree it’s not something I typically use as it’s a lot faster to just park it, it’s more to just show off the feature to friends or the rare instance I’d be Parked in a tight spot. People are impressed to see the car move without anyone in it lol

Judging by the heavy views but lack of replies, this must not be a feature a lot of people have or ever use.
It is pretty cool if it were to work to full capability; I’ll have to ask my SA next time I’m at the dealer.
The app typically shows me the arrows (front, back, left, right) but when I go to try and press is only allows me to use front or back, which is probably why I don’t use it as often, either.
Good to hear it has full functionality for you and is specific to my set up.

I live in Los Angeles and my service advisor at Audi of Santa Monica said that it doesn't work in the USA. I really find it hard to believe that it shows up as a feature on my window sticker, shows up in the audi connect app as a feature and even looks like it is going to work but doesn't. I even get it to the point of looking like it will work but it keeps telling me to move closer to my vehicle. It doesn't matter where I am, it just won't work. I just sent an email to Audi tech customer support for etron so we shall see what they say. I have been an Audi fan for a while but ever since I bought the Etron SUV, the one that keeps telling me I need to get my oil change, I am becoming less and less impressed.

UPDATE: After being on hold for an hour and speaking to a person for another 30 min, I had received an email from Audi asking me for screenshots of the error I was getting. I though, UGH, ok, if that is really what it will take to get this problem fixed, I'll go out and duplicate the issue. This time, after a few minutes of trying, it just started working. Of course, it doesn't work very well and will be a parlour trick until they get level 3 self driving rolled out in another 5-10 years. Oh, and it is only not supposed to work in New York and one other east coast state that I can't remember.

Your service adviser is either lazy or an idiot. What a terrible answer. I have the app and it works. I only got it to turn the car for a few feet then it would stop, if it would do it at all. Like others have said, it's more of a party trick since it does not work that good.

agreed...I will be sure to tell him how wrong they were when they told me it doesn't work in the USA. It is working now.
