Has anyone tinkered with the Window portion of this green menu? Is it possible to have all 4 windows go all the way down? In the US by default the rear windows only go down about 80% for child safety.

When a company posts a picture of a bottle of moly (lube) additive on a battery meter page, one might ask if they have any idea of what they are doing. Surely, it wasn't North Korean Hackers?
A simple battery meter is of limited use on a Q5. Normally system voltage floats all over the place (i.e. 12.4-14.4) during city and highway operation, with no apparent relationship to load or speed. I've confirmed this during a number of trips with a calibrated volt meter.
And, even when you car is not running, you also need to know how things work. Forgive me if it is old news but even on an AGM battery, it may need to sit for 8 hours with no large loads and no charging in order to stabilize and show the "real" voltage. So for checking battery condition, you need to check it after the car has been sitting overnight. For checking alternator performance...the only REAL information it can give you, is if it shows continual low output (12.x volts even at speed) or continual high output (over 15 volts at any time).
With no one at Audi really knowing how the charge control system works, the varying voltage ranges *may* actually be good charge management. Or may be all wrong. There's just no way to know based on what they won't tell us.
