Just to confirm: you've enabled the hidden menu through Carista and then restarted the MMI, right? And you have an MMI with navigation?
If all of those are a "yes", then you should be able to bring up the hidden menu by pressing and holding "CAR", then while still holding "CAR", also pressing and holding "SETUP", and holding them together for at least 5 sec, maybe more. I remember it seeming unusually long when I did it. Note that the order in which you press those buttons matters.
Seems like we're having issues with the auto gear display (i.e. it's not showing up as an option at all). We're working on it.
Btw, has anyone tried the auto-folding mirrors yet? Did it work? We have 3 separate settings for them and I want to know whether they're all necessary in order to get this to work. My suspicion is that the latter 2 are already on for people who have power-folding mirrors to begin with:
1. "Fold/unfold mirrors via long-press on remote (req. power folding mirrors)"
2. "Fold/unfold driver-side mirror via long-press on remote (req. power folding mirrors)"
3. "Fold/unfold passenger-side mirror via long-press on remote (req. power folding mirrors)"
And also, they shouldn't actually require long press... they should just fold when you lock the car from the remote (single click) or hold your finger on the door handle for a few seconds (w/ smart key).

I noticed my parking aid settings option disappeared. My Q5 is all stock except for carista mods: interior light, wink off, seatbelt chime disable, remote window control, needle sweep. Anyone else facing the same problem?

Is the folding mirrors and gear display only on the beta? Can I get added to the beta please? I can't find any of his in the app for my 2016 Q5. Rogroc325@yahoo.com
Thanks
Thanks
Cool! Glad to hear.

Yes, those options are only in the beta. Are you on Android or iOS? For Android, you can just get the beta from here: Beta-Testing | Carista OBD2 - Vehicle Diagnostics and Customization For iOS, pls reply and I'll add you.
Do you mean that it disappeared from Carista or that it disappeared from your MMI? If it's from Carista, try going into CUSTOMIZE again and if those options are still missing, open the slide-out menu from the left and use "Report a problem". Sometimes certain OBD adapters have intermittent connection issues and fail to connect to certain ECUs in the car (in this case, possibly the parking aid ECU).
Cool! Glad to hear.
