Default Driver Assistance showing up after 40k service?!?

My 2017 A4 has just received its 40k service. Driving shortly after this, I got the following pop-up alert approaching an intersection. The "green foot" is not new, but the audible alert and flip to the "Driver assistance" panel of the MFD, including the "crossroads" icon was new. Has anyone else seen similar? Anything else I should be expecting?

NOTE: though I've enabled a handful of things via OBDEleven (auto high beams, needle sweep, gear indicator, lane departure), I have not enabled any of the Driver Assistance items, nor do I have that package on my Prestige.

I’m also interested in your MMI version- did they update it when you took it in? I’ve never seen this and I have a Prestige pretty much fully loaded including the drivers assist package.

I have a 17 prestage with driver assist package and have seen it once or twice, not sure it has anything to do with the prestige or update though.

That's pretty cool. But I doubt it will be available for anyone but Prestige owners.

Isn't this just the predictive efficiency assist? I think it requires Navigation and TSR to work. Turned it off as soon as I got the car so haven't actually seen it in action myself.

That's just it. I don't have TSR and haven't seen this pop up in 40k miles of driving. It also hasn't popped up again.

My car doesn’t have TSR (Premium Plus) but if I switch the display to “Driver Assistance” I get the notifications that OP is talking about.
