Pre-Sense doing exactly that was the final nail in the coffin for me with my RS4 - felt it was only a matter of time before I got rear-ended.

just got this back from Audi UK what i expected really

Thanks for providing that.

Having liaised with our Technical Support Team, we can confirm that it is not possible to permanently disable the Pre-Sense function in your vehicle as this is classed as a safety feature. Additionally, for that reason, it could also have insurance implications.

That being said, to ensure that there isn't an underlying issue that is causing the system to be so sensitive, we'd definitely recommend that you have that inspected by one of our expert Technicians at your local Audi Center. Would you like us to have the Service Team at your nearest Center get in touch to discuss that with you?

so ill just have to see if anyone on the Ross tech forum has the answer
