Audi A6 Allroad end of term review and start of chapter 2

[Jobbo]

It barely looks very 'allroad' compared to the normal A6 there. Does it have adjustable ride height?

Yes, air suspension which can be raised and lowered. The 20" wheels which are a design shared with the normal A6s don't help it look particularly rufty-tufty either; nor do the painted wheelarches and sills. Which all suits me now I have a proper 4x4 for that sort of use.

I'll take a potato photo with the suspension at full height on top of a kerb or something.

I have discovered an annoyance with the MMI controller. I knew it worked in the opposite direction to BMW and Merc ones but the screen graphics are appropriate so you get used to it. But when using Carplay it blatantly rotates the opposite direction to the cursor on screen which is mad. I'll probably get used to it, but I may end up using the car's own nav when my SIM card is delivered to show traffic data.

is it not touchscreen?

[Jobbo]

It's not - the newer Audis without physical controls for the ventilation etc are touch screen but not the previous gen like mine.

Odd when Golfs, Yetis and other VAG products have had touch screens for years, but they all have the screen much lower down the dash, which I dislike.
