Hi All,
Just picked up a 2017 Q7 Prestige model and have a question regarding pre-sense / city sense feature. Should this feature stop your car if you slowly roll forward towards a wall. My garage space is limited so I was curious if the car would stop. To test it, I held up a cardboard sheet while my wife rolled the car forward by only keeping her foot off the brake. The car hit the cardboard and did not stop. Just curious whether it should stop or the reason why it wouldn't? Appreciate any feedback!

Thanks,
Mark

No, you have to be going greater than 6 MPH.

For real? They tested with a real person? Crazy!

Sometimes Pre Sense really scary me, specially when you are stopped in a traffic jam and motorcycles are running in between the traffic lanes, and one of them passes really close to the back of the car activating Pre Sense, locking the seat belts and displaying red alerts and aural alerts.

Other times Pre Sense activates when I'm reversing and a car comes. In these cases Pre Sense brakes my car automatically.
