Default Q5 2016 Configuration options

Trying to configure Q5 TDI to finalize my order.
I want to have ventilated seats and SA telling me it is available only with Prestige line but audiusa.com let you build Premium Plus with Luxury option to include vent seats. Who is right?

Second, I want all seasons tires - again, SA telling me prestige is coming with summer performance only and config guide let me select 19" with all season tires.

Any experience with those options?

According to the order guide posted here:
https://www.audiworld.com/forums/q5-.../#post24686237

vent seats are part of the Luxury package, available on both Premium Plus and Prestige.

20" wheels with summer tires are either a standalone option or part of the S-Line package.

But this order guide is from April 3rd. Maybe it is outdated?

It is an outdated order guide but it is still an option offered on both trim levels. The SA is incorrect.

When my Q5TDI was rolled off the truck at the dealership, the General Manager swapped the Summer tires for Continental ExtremeContact DWS all-season tires. I offered to pay for the removal, mounting and balancing, but it turned out to be practically an even deal. We discussed this scenario before my order and I got it in writing. Those Conti's are smooth and quiet and perform in any weather.
Maybe your GM will do the same for you.
