Q6 eSelf study program
Years ago, there was an eSelf study guide on the NHTSA website for the OG e-tron: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...55750-9999.pdf
That has lots of good info, and I was wondering if anyone knows if a similar document exists for the Q6 e-tron. I'm curious to find out if the Q6 still has the 'aspirational' rotor cooling system that has proven problematic for our e-trons. I'd also like to know if the cooling system is able to utilize waste heat from the battery to warm the cabin. I seem to remember reading somewhere that at least the related electric Macan does not support this, with a hit on cold weather range.

They were in a Macan and said its a huge part of efficiency.
I doubt they disable the function for other vehicles built on the platform. Seems like a pretty large piece of the engineering that makes the vehicle function.

About the 10:30 mark. In an awesome German accent "we won't let any joule get out of the car."
