Coasting mode disengages the engine from the gearbox, which means that you can save fuel by anticipating the traffic situation ahead. The Audi Q7 coasts without the engine braking effect, with the engine ticking over at idle speed. You can use coasting mode when approaching a speed restriction in a built-up area, for instance. Activating coasting mode Take your foot off the accelerator. The gear will no longer be displayed in the instrument cluster (e.g. D instead of D7). Stopping coasting mode Press the brake or accelerator pedal or briefly pull the paddle lever -–- Fig. ►. Requirements for using coasting mode
WARNING When coasting mode is activated, there is no longer an engine braking effect and the Audi Q7 does not slow down as quickly as usual or may even pick up speed if you are driving down a slope - risk of accident! You can avoid coasting mode when the selector lever is in position D if you take your foot off the accelerator quickly. Note
