Default A close look at the R8's looks like they were the Euro demo units brought to the states on display
at dealers. They probably had to be destroyed anyway.

Default no button in the Q7. but my driving impression is that the system is far less invasive
than ours. also seems to work better-- ie the reasults are more predictable

Would pulling the fuse for ABS/EDL also kill my cruise control, or is my CC fuxord again?
