I've got an a6 and just pressing the traction control button turns it off partially. If you want it fully off press and hold for 3sec and you'll have a message that it's fully off. Worth a try!
Love the content, I'm going right along with you on my own '16 S6. Just finished wheel spacers, front lip, custom x-pipe, and have OBDEleven on the way. Unitronic Stage1 1+ this summer!
Go to the boost screen, try to set launch at like 2500-3000 in your tune if you can and you will see the boost gauge fill. And you will get faster times. I'm stage 2 I get 3.5 average when my launch control doesn't work. I don't have a great TCU tune setup for launch control, it revs freely. But when it engages properly and holds around 2500-3000 I get 3.2 0-60
Hey Eli I'm on the verge of trading in my s4 since I got a kid. What's your thoughts between an s6 or s7? Or should pay the extra $$ and pull the trigger on an rs7. Thanks bro
@@IgnitionTube sorry for late reply but yeah they do, it's in their website, they can also remove the speed limiter and give a pops and bangs tune for an up charge of 200$ each I believe, my friend got their tune for his s7 and he said that it's been amazing, the s6 tune gets you to the mid 500s in HP and high 500s for torque the link is www.sheepeytuned.com/collections/audi/products/sheepey-tuned-audi-s6-c8-ecu-tune?variant=33080722686092
When I got my B8.5 S4, I brought it home and checked the counter; it had 1 launch on it so I made sure to change that... Oddly, I think I’ve done ~8 launches since but my counter only reads like 4 and I know I’ve always fully engaged launch control so I’m not really sure what happened there.
Hes doing this in comfort mode. Which in my case I ended up doing 0-60 in 4.1 and the 1/4 in 12.1@112. BUUUUT my dynamic mode is ideal. 0-60 in 3.6 and the 1/4 in 11.75@116mph
Brother hold the traction button for about 10 15 seconds and your welcome. Be advised the car will go faster however I almost killed myself drifting on the highway because I'm insane... I made it by the way all fine, i hit 150 messing with a c63....yes I'm insane.
I launched my A6 couple times, so much fun. I cant even imagine how will s6 feels like
And so it begins!

16+ doesn’t do that, trust me I’ve tried!
Can’t wait for that tune, I’m excited for you man

I’m glad you posted this I always wanted to know how to check the counter and I did and I only had two launches and they were all done by me
That’s awesome!!
This was pretty solid Eli! I loved the outro from the S4 days. This seems similar but something like that would be cooler
I got this car c7 s6. but 2013 and 570hp stage two engine and transmission, Its wild. I have beaten stock rs6 c7
Hey that was fun, Thanks. Look forward to seeing the tune on the S6!

Yoooooo The weeknd remix outro is BACKKKK baby. That gave me crazy nostalgia from the s4 days.
Idk how you didn’t do launch control the day you got it. I haven’t even put 200 miles on my new engine and floored it multiple times.
Things gonna really rip with a tune, Eli!
Sounds like IE is dropping a tune!
I heard this, anyone else got more details?

holding down the traction control button should turn it off completely i believe
If someone checked my last car they’re of laughed in horror how many times I’ve launched it haha.
Heard that sheepy race makes a good tune for the s6, I will try it out once I get mine and I'll let you know how it goes
They do??

That’s interesting - maybe yours only counts launches by 0.5’s 😂😂
I got 3.86 0-60 and 12.46 1/4 in my 15 A8 4.0t stock
And 3.68 0-60 and 11.59 1/4 APR Stage 1
in S8 sure, but under 4s 0-60 stock with 4.0t A8 is BS... Car has about the same power as S6 but is heavier...Dont lie
When I bought my S4 two years ago, it had 13 launches. When I sold it last month it had 190.
Hell yeah. Used it!!!
@@IgnitionTube yes sir! Lol
Lol very "used" car

did you try holding down the esc for 4 sec it should turn it off fully i have an 2015 s3 and found that out
doesn't work for 2016-2018 Audis for whatever reason. My 2016 SQ5 was the same way.
If you hold the traction control button it will turn traction Control off completely
It won’t for 16+
From what reliable source do I buy an OBDeleven?
Any reason you didn't run in dynamic?
Which OBD2 do you use?
you can turn the esc completely off, you just have to hold the button for 3 seconds instead of tapping it...
Not on a 16+, trust me I’ve tried 😂
I was thinking about getting the draggy how do you like it so far easy to use and input to the video?
Yes super easy, lots of videos how to use it online and it's very user friendly!!
Press and hold the TC to shut everything else off
Doesn’t work - I’ve tried. 16+ Audis won’t let you do that.
If you didn't have a family would you still own an s6 or stick with something smaller and more nimble like an s4 / s5 ?
I already did the S4, I probably would have ended up in a big turbo S3 after the S4 if it wasn’t for the family stuff though
How do you enable the boost gauge? You can do that with your OBD phone app?
Yes! We talked about it in the “fully airing out my S6” video I made a few weeks ago
Would you do a stage 1 tune just to improve torque?
Are you asking if I’ll ever tune it, or more just big pictures? If you’re asking about me, I talk about it at the end of the video :)
@@IgnitionTube haha I was asking if you are going to tune it
Finally! 👍
How fast is it when you stomp on it from zero? (No launch control)
I’m not sure - I’ll have to run it with no launch!
Your tempting me to get a s6!
Do it, you won’t be disappointed trust me
I’ve got a 14’ S6 stage 2 and it’s the best daily driver you can get in my opinion
Does the SQ5 have launch control from the factory?
It has a max acceleration mode, but no technical launch control per say
How does max acceleration made work? And thanks for another great video!!
When did the Mexican border get close to New England? Have I missed something???
SCIENCE
And stock I can guarantee you won't be setting any records
Do you remember playing Fortnite with me when the game first released?
Yes!!!!
No way I went to that exact same area last time I took a trip down to Mexico.
Yeah, there are only so many straight roads on the border!
Acuity!

Oh I’m early af
4.2 to 60 ? Wtf
I let them Audi ads play through.
NO, you WERE on the MEXICAN side of the border...
