Is there a way to retract the screen while still listening to and being able to scroll through channels on the radio?

Yes. Just hit the retract button (to the right of the steering wheel) and then use the center console display when you want to change stations (use the left-right buttons on the left side of the steering wheel to bring up the radio stations display)

Default backwards

Oh, and if you open the door while going backwards the car stops and the emergency brakes engages.

What I have noticed is that anytime the door is opened while the car is in drive, engages the parking brake.

There is on the 2016 models. By the fob, door switch, close button on the trunk inner lid.

I'm sure it's possible if you are willing to pay for the motor, closing mechanism, wiring, installation and software coding. Prepare for gobs of money.

The vendor that has this was charges $1295 + shipping + install of your choice (DIY or other). So yea, a few bucks just for a power trunk. I would love to have this in my car as I love it in the Q, but I am looking at $1500+ after I pay to install. Not sure I could tackle this DIY

I have a 2016 S6. Today I had the HVAC system set to auto. The 4 top vent were blowing pretty hard.

I tried a voice command to set an address in the navigation system.

I thought it was pretty cool when the 2 center vents shut down, making the cabin quieter, while I was verbalizing address info. Then once the address was accepted the center vents returned to blowing cold air again.

Very cool.
