Air suspension? Take it to Audi for that warranty work.

And how much fuel do you have and have you checked it when it was full as well as empty.

To me, the difference seems to be within the norm. If the vehicle pulls, then take it to get the alignment checked.

Seems like you really aren't happy with the Q7 with the dislike of the 2.0T, the steel suspension looks different, the snot and I'm sure there are more.

Dude, I cant imagine getting an accurate reading in any real world situation. But I do love how you spend your time finding random "issues" and posting them on here for our amusement, and then disappearing. A+ for effort.

You know there are many ways to rid your car, right?

LOL. No ****! I've never seen someone that TRIES so hard to find reasons his $70k vehicle is a POS, and how it needs a full refund on it. Heh soguy12, why don't you just drive it off a cliff, claim insurance and go missing from this board? That way it would save all the BS you are randomly generating due to buyers remorse over you not buying the 3.0.

It's common for the driver front to be slightly higher so when your fat a$$ gets in the driver seat, the vehicle rides level. My GMC truck was the same. I could slide under the driver side with no issues in the garage, passenger side was a really right fit.

it seems to me that the car pulling might be the quattro system compensating for the decrease in ride height on the right side,

no air suspension,

after setting car pressure +2 psi higher on right side, it does not pull that often, alrhough ride heIght is still uneven
