do C7 A6 cars have the 'after run' heater feature
that the C6 A6s had where in the heater could be made to run for a period after the car was turned off ? If the C7s do have it, how is it engaged ?

If you are referring to the feature that allows the in-car HVAC to run after the car has shut off OR turn on x amount of minutes before you're about to leave for a trip - then it's a yes and no. Yes, it is possible to have it and no, it is not automatically available for USDM cars. You will need a VCDS cable to enable both the menu option in the MMI (via the Green Engineering Menu) and enable the "auxiliary heater" option via VAGCOM.

thanks for that Kevin. Although I'm 99% certain I'll never use it, since I rarely if ever sit in the car after I've turned the car off and wait. I can see why others would use it, but it's nice to know these features exist even in cars that are almost 15 years old
