Damn ... Had to go check, since I thought I'd turned that **** off on both our B9s. Sure enough, it reactivates after the ignition cycles. That's BS. Need to find a hack to shut that feature off; it's the worst. Literally.

My second gripe is the seats. Maybe it's that I have ventilated but these have to be some of the most uncomfortable seats I've been in. I'm still playing with the adjustment on them but they seem extremely hard and a bit wider than I'd prefer for "sport" seats. I don't remember being so uncomfortable in the nappa based ones I test drove. It's been awhile since I've been in an Audi but it seems a bit more extreme than I remember.
