Geez, should have never mentioned I did not have the soft-close door issue, sure enough it happened today causing the car to go into park every time I came to a stop (this could be a safety issue)...it only fixed itself after a restart. My wife really likes this feature and it's one of the main reasons I got her the Q7 vs others. Is there a dedicated fix for this, or is everyone in limbo? Thx

Thanks, I agree about others getting theirs in, but I personally may wait until there is a dedicated fix(es), as I don't want ours to be a beta tester so to speak.

Soft close doors-no fix at this time
Alarm chirp- no info

Parking brake-there is a software patch Good
Driver's door - can be fixed. Mine required a new door module and soft close switch Good
Drive assist- no info on that one On longer trips, mine gives hands off wheel warning when hands never left the wheel
Soft close doors-no fix at this time Already a few reporting this here in addition to us, so it's most likely widespread and since it's a safety issue Audi should diligently be working on solution
Alarm chirp- no info A few reported this issue here in addition to me, sometimes it works other times not when locking via door handle or fob
Pre-sense no info either. What's the issue? https://www.audiworld.com/forums/q7-mkii-discussion-211/pre-sense-error-2943243/
See above, thx

This is normal if the system doesn't sense any counter torque in the steering wheel you will get this message. The car doesn't sense if your hands are on the wheel, it senses if you're steering (or attempting) so if you hold your hands perfectly still and don't need to turn the wheel you'll get the message, if you just tug at the steering and it goes away, that is the fix. I've gotten the message a few times on straight roads, don't worry about it.
