Default Question from the S4 board... My business neighbor has an A6 and his alarm is constantly going off..

...when his window or sunroof is cracked to release heat. I know there is a motion sensor overide button somewhere... but where? On my S4, it's on the inside of the drivers side pilar between the front and back door (B pilar). Please help me so that I don't have to listen to his alarm going off 10 times a day.

Thank you from a fellow Audi owner.

Default Well, then I am blind and suck eggs at braille, cause I absolutely could not locate it in daylight..

How could have I missed it?? It certainly is not in the "exact" same place as mine because, there was absolutely no button there. Am I losing it? I don't know this guy well enough to go over and ask him if I can inspect his B pilar for the button. Maybe I'll stop by the dealer on the way home to satisfy my heightened curiosity.

Thanks again.

Oops, you are right, it is just above the trunk release, and not quite the same location as an S4.
