Default Code to adjust Drive Select default setting

I was wondering if anyone ran across a coding that would allow you to change the Audi Drive Select (ADS) default from "Auto" to one of the other settings like "Individual" when you start the car? It's not a big issue to hit the button twice to get to Individual every time, but it sure would be nice if I could just default it to a different setting with vag-com.

I'm specifically requesting for an A4 B8, but I'd be curious if anyone found the coding for any Audi with ADS.

Sorry, we haven't come across a setting that would accomplish this.

The meat of what it says is:

09 Central Electric -> Adaptation -> Channels 63, 64, 65, 66 (the standard value is 2 (Auto)) --> Change values to 3 for example).

Possible values:

1 = Comfort
2 = Automatic (Standard)
3 = Dynamic
4 = Individual

NOTE/Disclaimer: This info has not been verified by Ross-Tech! I'm a bit surprised that it's 4 channels -- one per corner?

Thanks again. I was wondering why there were 4 channels. I figured once I got in there it might make more sense, but I'm not sure if I would have put two and two together to realize I needed to adjust all four. Hey, maybe we can make each wheel different (hahahaha.)

There is a canal for every driving step. (Comfort, Auto, Dynamic, Individual) With it satisfyingly functions, everything must be changed, tried out, for example, on 3 = Dynamic

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

It's a very minor thing with ADS, but very annoying that it defaults to "automatic" each time you start the car.

Just a quick reply that I applied the settings and it works as advertised. My car now defaults to "individual" every time I start the car.
