I've had my Q7 for a couple months now, and I love it! I had a VW Touareg TDI and also loved it! I do wish I could lower the center screen while driving down the hwy. Has anyone used Vag-Com to do this?

There are thread on this from earlier. Looks like you can't do it since it would go against US regulations regarding time it takes to show backup camera image.

Congrats...what specs did you get?
Agreed about the pop up...I even offered a reward for the person who can come up with the solution

Specs...Samurai Grey metallic V6, Black optics, 22" titanium wheels, Bose, All wheel steel steering, Air suspension, full front side, door edge, and rear film, front windows tinted. Everything but the better stereo, and night vision. I like the reward idea!! not sure why they at least would let us put it down after 30mph or something close to that? Keep me posted if anyone figures this out...

Not sure why Audi couldn't just have the backup cam display in virtual cockpit if the screen is down.

Looks great. But your pictures reminded me of a question I've been meaning to ask. How come newer cars, especially expensive luxury brands like ours, come with those dinky tire valve caps? And why are they green?

We've purchased our Q7 and an E400 Cab in the last year and they both come with those cheap, plastic caps that are green, whereas our cars, also BMW and MB, came with more premium-feeling caps. And they weren't green.

Is it some sort of regulation thing that they need to be green? Is it a money thing that they aren't something that feels a bit more solid, or even metal?
