Hello.

Does the A7 have the heat recirculation feature where it'll continue to heat the cabin with the residual engine heat for like a half hour after the car is shutoff? I loved this feature in my Mercedes but I don't see a switch for it in the Audi. I see Audi advertises "heat recirculation" as a feature on the A7 so I'm assuming it's that. I think on the Mercedes they called it the "rest" feature. Does anyone know?

Yes. With the car off press and hold the fan button for 5-10 sec and the car will recirculate the residual engine heat

You're right! Thanks!!! I wonder why Audi almost hides this features, like, for your own safety, they don't want you pressing it by accident. What's next? All the occupants have to turn their launch keys at the same time in order to activate the recirculation...

Hidden? It is in the user manual that came with the car!

Is this a recently-added feature? I tried it on our C6 A6 this afternoon and didn't get anything.


Thanks.

I said "almost hides". Other cars I have owned have a dedicated switch for this function. In any event, you shouldn't have to read the owner's manual for the relatively basic functions.
