Default 2019 A6 Virtual Display and Cruise Assist

Just purchased a 2019 A6 coming from a 2011 A4. There are a couple of things i am trying to figure out but have not found info in the manual/videos.

The pic below is a view from the Virtual Çockpit that offers a split screen showing driver assist and trip information on the left and oil temp on the right. I can change the info that is displayed on the left but I cannot figure out how to change the right and show something different than oil temp. I would like to show driver assist and something like current song vs oil temp. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Not sure why they thought Oil temp was so important to have a constant display of it on this screen.

Also shown on the screen is the label "Adaptive Cruise Assist : Moderate" - I would assume that if it says moderate there would be other levels such as "Aggressive" or "Conservative" . but, i never get the display to say anything but "Moderate"

Lastly, with Adaptive Cruise Assist on and in stop and go traffic, i need to re-engage the adaptive cruise assist if i am stopped longer than like 3 seconds -- is there a way to extend this time? Very annoying to have to hit this over and over. I understand it probably is for safety but my other car does not require this in its AutoPilot feature and it works great.

Thanks for any help!!

Moderate, Standard or Sport. You can change it in MMI.

True on the change is in the MMI for Cruise Assist. I too find it annoying to have to tap the pedal to get the car moving again after being stopped for a short period of time. It does not seem to be consistent either. Some times it will be longer than 3 seconds and it will start forward without me tapping the pedal. My plan was to bring my car in at the next oil change and have them explain why it does what it does.

Oil temp is not changeable by owners. I would ask my salesman about possibly being able to change that by the dealership...

side note: anyone know where the fragrance fill tank is located. My dealership seems to think I should not know where it is... They say the fragrance should last to the 10K oil change timeframe. I don't think so...

At least in the USA I don’t believe our A6/7s have the fragrance. Only in the A8. That’s what the dealer told me

In Europe (Germany at least) you get the fragrance option in conjunction with the Ioniser as part of the Air Quality Pack option - an option not offered in the UK.
