Except I'm in Canada and our spots are not quite as large as the US and we parallel OFTEN.
You can open with the button but you need a key to close the windows for safety reasons, if someone is in the car like a child and there hand is out of the window at a distance you wouldn't see that and close the window on their arm, they want to at the car when closing to be safe.
This is only because we have so many morons here in North America. In Europe, you can close then with the remote too.
America has way to many safety features on products, its because other countries don't care if you get hurt with there product its your dumb ass fault in america you get hurt and everyone feels its right to point the blame at someone else and sue them.
Exactly! And it often fucks it up for us Canadians and the rest of the normal Americans in the US that wouldn't mind if some idiot's hand got chopped off if they decided to put their hand in our windows and left them there while we closed them.
Strange because when the windows senses some resistance it opens again by itself. So normally nobody can get hurt.
Which is actually a bad thing what if someone goes crazy and tries to attack you? It does happen, and if your window just keeps rolling down because of a stupid "safety" feature then you're more screwed.
From the manual: "The driver's window auto reverse function is disabled when you continuously pull up the switch."
... And here is the answer
Agree. I came from an Audi A4 with this feature and between the tilt down mirror and rear view camera parallel parking was a breeze. It is the only practical feature I've found missing so far - it will take some getting used to, and unfortunately I see rim rash in the future.
If the car needs to apply the brakes, the brake lights will turn on (I've done the test). Otherwise, if it's just coasting, it won't turn on the brake lights.
You could manually lower your passenger mirror when parallel parking. But if you parallel park a lot, I can see this being a bit of a pain.
Well, that comes back to another somewhat missed feature from the Audi.... key-based seat/mirror memory settings. Basically you could adjust the seats/mirrors to your preference and save it to a key. Two settings per key, as well.
