Hello I learned how to laucnh control well thank you but I'am afraid to launch my 2022 A4 40TDI quattro because I have seen some videos that cars broke the driveshaft or etc. Does launching my a4 will harm it ?
@@tugragollu3480 hi. So when you do launch control, that puts a lot of pressure on your whole car, especially on gearbox and engine parts. With that in mind, I would recommend that you don't do it often, but if you do it every now and then I think you will not have problems.
@@KJ-cr7xq first, congrats on your beast of a car! Man, RS5 is a track ready car, begging for speed and action. So it is ready for launches 100% and you don't need to be scared of it if you gonna do it every now and then. Just make sure to warm up the engine before you do it. Have fun 😎
Older versions had a limit of 200 launch controls in order to save the transmission system. But if you have 2017 a4 that is B9 model.. Your car has a torque converter transmission, and that's a new system that has no limits for launch controll.. so you can do it as much as you want, but pay attention on oil temp. Don't do it if oil temp is below 80°C because you put a lot of torque and force on engine so engine needs to ne warm before you do it.
Hey brother does your car have Tiptronic gearbox or S tronic. I have an s5 in Australia and not sure if it has launch control stock because I have tiptronic gearbox
Bro, you forgot one step!! Idk how everyone forgets this step lol. You need to hold the esc button for 4-5 seconds turns esc off, then launch the car and you will see the difference. Also for b9 b9.5 s4/rs4/s5/rs5 don't hold the launch control for more than 5 - 6 seconds.. It will automatically cut it off plus thats hard on the transmission. For b9/b9.5 a4/a5 with dct(dsg) same steps just make sure to hold the esc button for 4-5 seconds.. It will hold the rpm at 3k and it will bounce off it.
I'm not so sure that you should turn ESC completely off. Just press it once so you got ESC sport. When you do launch control you need maximum traction and if ESC is off you might lose some traction and therefore some acceleration.
As far as I know, your car has S tronic transmission so with that, you should be able to do it, because Audi manual says that cars with S tronic have launch control. Be sure to warm up the engine before you try it. Enjoy 😁
Aa far as I know you should be able to do it if you follow the steps from vid. Also I checked in user manual, and it says that cars with S-tronic transmission have it.
First put your car in sport/dynamic, ESP off and after that push the clutch pedal all the way forward, then push your accelerator pedal all the way, wait for rpm to reach around 3500 and just put your foot off the clutch. Tell me if this works for you. Enjoy
I'm not sure if this model is equipted with launch control system. But you can do a similar thing called brake boosting. Hold brake all the way down and hit the accelerator, when you hit high RPM, release brake. You can do that if car has automatic transmission.
@@lenzer6674 yeah, you can do it with your car. So when you do a launch control in any car, that's when the engine, transmission and all other parts are under most pressure and stress. But if you don't do it very often, and only do it when engine is warmed up, I think that you don't need to worry. I've seen couple of clips where guys are doing launch control with A7 3.0 TDI easily.
Yeah, you can do it. Buttons for drive select and ESC may be on different position and I'm not sure that A6 has boost indicator but the process is the same. Hold brake pedal, smash the accelerator pedal and when rpm reaches 3000-3500, you release brakes and take off.
@@supie5063 not sure if A8 has Sport/Dynamic setting on drive select. But you do same thing. 1. Set ESC to Sport or off 2. Hold brake all the way down than hit the accelerator pedal fully forward. When RPM reaches 4k, release brake pedal and enjoy! And 1 other thing, not sure if A models are equipted with what some people call "real launch control". If not, this is called brake boosting. But you get similar results. Try it out and let me know how it went.
Hey I got an audi A3 2019 S tronic 150 hp. But it wont launch for some reason? I put it in Dynamic mode, Shift it in S, Foot on the brake, Steer straith, Start/stop off, and traction control off. It only gets up tot 1500 rpm and then it stops revving and I already feel that the car want to roll while my foot is still on the brake. Somebody knows it?
That sound strange. So it goes to 1500rpm and after that rpm starts to drop while you still hold your foot on pedal? One more thing, don't forget to turn off auto hold function if you have it in your car (next to parking brake button, it has lette A on it), because it messes with launch control.
@@TNT_Creations Yes I have it in my car but when I start the car it is standard off. I did some more research. Maybe you need to put the gasspedal all the way down fast when you want to rev up? So your car knows that you wanna launch the car? I found on the internet that some bmw owners had that problem and had to go instant full throttle before the launch. Don’t know if that is the same with Audi? I never launched any car before so I am quite new to this
@@gieljanlogchies8190 I rly don't know what could be the problem. It's normal that rpms drop when you try to smash it while in idle.. but when you are in drive or sport, rpms shold hold around 3000 while you hold pedal
Make sure you put your car in sport mode, disable autohold function and that your gear selector knob is in drive. If you try to do this while selector knob is in neutran (N) you will get what you described --> rpm will rise and rapidly fall to 1000 rpm and that's because rev limiter. Let me know if you made it.
I’ve never tried it by long pressing the ESC button, I’ve only pressed it once to put it in Sport mode… what advantage/disadvantage is there to turning off ESC completely?
From what I know, to perform launch control you need to turn off ESC completely. I don't change anything (For launched control, not car driving), its some kind of "protection" for Audi company from unpredicted car behavior. For example if you crash your car because you slided or smth like that, they can say that you disabled you ESC and you get a warning about that on dashboard.
I don't think this is actually launch control. You just have a transmission with torque converter, which doesn't let the engine to fly away, but it let's you to rev it until around 3000 rpm. Proper launch control also opens the powertrain, and releases the clutch more quickly. You also did not turn the ESP off, and you did not get the launch control activation message on the dash, which also indicates that this was not a proper launch.
Torque converter has a bypass clutch wich can directly connect engine to the gearbox. It monitors engine speed and gearbox speed while providing torque multiplication and it is installed in more and more new cars, because of its efficiency and advantages over older transmissions. Another thing, in older versions of owner manual, in launch control description, there was instruction to set ESP to Sport. New manuals have instruction to put ESP to OFF. I tried launch control with sport and off multiple times, and I got 4.3 seconds regardless. Only newer RS models and R8 have a message that says "launch control programm activated" so this message doesn't exist on S5 B9 software. So this was a proper launch control and you should inform yourself a bit more before claiming something like this.
@@TNT_Creations the lock-up clutch usually gets closed only in 2nd or 3rd gear (typically for Audi), even in normal conditions. But even if it's fully open, the torque converter transfers the engine torque hydraulically, so opening up the powertrain only works if you open up also one clutch inside the transmission. All I'm saying is that you have no evidence here whether this was a proper launch control, or just a manual execution of that. In cars with DCT transmission, you get the powetrain open, and the engine speed in controlled state somewhere around 3-4000 RPM, and when you step off the brake, it slams the clutch very aggressively. And the difference is clear: here the car also wants to move when you are in standstill (you are transferring full-load torque at 3000 RPM) , but with proper launch control active, it opens the powertrain, so you don't actually need to hold the car with the brakes, therefore the brake pedal works more of like a switch, and full brake power is not necessarry. I tried also in a few VW-group vehicles. I think this is not a basic feature in S-models. You can execute it exactly the same way as with launch control installed, it basically doesn't make too much difference with a torque converter transmission, but without receiving any feedback from the instrument cluster that launch control has been actually activated, then I think this is at least highly questionable whether it was a proper "launch control" start, or just a start in sport mode from standstill.
@@imrebese5502 I get that DCT transmission is mechanically different and it works on another principle. Another thing, DSG transmission that has as you call it "real launch control" has a limit of possible launch controls (as I remember around 200) because of greater gearbox wear). On the other side torque converter has no limit on number of launch controls. In my oppinion that is a great advantage. Again, in Audi S5 B9 owners manual, there is a part called "Launch control function" with description of how to engage it. And its written that you pay attention on boost indicator, but there is no launch contorl engaged message simply because that message is not installed in software of B9 models. Starting from standstill by just smashing accelerator pedal will not give you time as fast as with following steps from manual. I tried it multiple times.
@@TNT_Creations the 2019 tdi s5 can do it (mild hybrid with electrical turbos) - insane feeling, literally like being on a rollercoaster, but the sound just isnt there :/
Every model but not every year.. only the newer dual clutch transmission like in the c7 a6 or the b8 s4. I have a c6 and it has the older transmission right before they started throwing the dsg trans. The older ones like mine aren't tuneable like the new ones. Nor can I launch it 😒
So your car has tiptronic transmission and I'm not sure if it has it. Because in Audi owners manual there is a section called Launch control where they say that cars with S-tronic transmission have it.
I have a 2024 S5, and the user manual says clear as day that launch control is for "RS models only". I've still tried the procedure, and it launches REALLY fast, but I'm very worried that we're totally fucking our torque converters by doing this, because the S5 does NOT have launch control, there has never been an S5 with a tiptronic transmission that had launch control.
I didn't know that.. In my user manual they wrote that cars with Stronic transmission have Launch control, and there is described process on how to do it, like I did in video. Do you get same time results with doing launch control and with just smashing the gas pedal from standstill?
@@mrjanik3 not sure if your model has launch control system but if you engage both engines from the start, you should be able to do brake boosting. Am I right?
@@mrjanik3 oh, somebody told me same thing a few months ago. I don't know if they started to install some kind of new revs limiter but that's bad. 1 option is if you decide to tune ECU and tell them to disable that limiter.
@@AlbertAlbert-ey7se that's something a cop would say 😆 yeah I remember while editing this video, I was thinking if I should leave the speed visible but believe it or not, some guys here in Croatia got in problems with police for posting vids like this.. so I went with blurr not to have to sllep in jail
If you check official Audi S5 owner manual, you can find section called Launch Control, and below it's described to do steps as I showed you. So this is indeed launch control.
Again, not true. ECS OFF on damp/wet road will make you lose traction and it takes more time 0-100kmh. So dry road- ECS off - maybe... But wet road ECS sport - beats it every time. Rly depends on road condition.
I love the blurr to remove incriminating evidence

It does not work with my tfsi-e engine... Previous petrol and diesel Q5 worked ☹️
So you drive a hybrid. Does the car drive on electromotor from say 0-60kmh and than the petrol engine takes over or how is it arranged?
@@TNT_CreationsIt depends on you. It can drive only with electric or both engines together
@@mrjanik3 not sure if your model has launch control system but if you engage both engines from the start, you should be able to do brake boosting. Am I right?
@@TNT_Creations no, rpm are only 1.800... ☹️
@@mrjanik3 oh, somebody told me same thing a few months ago. I don't know if they started to install some kind of new revs limiter but that's bad. 1 option is if you decide to tune ECU and tell them to disable that limiter.
I was only waiting for the speed 😂😅
@@AlbertAlbert-ey7se if you're a cop, I only went 50 😅
@@TNT_Creations I’m definitely not a cop 👍
@@AlbertAlbert-ey7se that's something a cop would say 😆 yeah I remember while editing this video, I was thinking if I should leave the speed visible but believe it or not, some guys here in Croatia got in problems with police for posting vids like this.. so I went with blurr not to have to sllep in jail
@@TNT_Creations if I’m serious I’m 14yo I’m not a cop and I like Audis❤️
@@AlbertAlbert-ey7se I was just joking man 😁 I'm glad you liked my video ❤️
This is not the launch control because it did not appear in the written panel
If you check official Audi S5 owner manual, you can find section called Launch Control, and below it's described to do steps as I showed you.
So this is indeed launch control.
ESC needs to be OFF!
Again, not true. ECS OFF on damp/wet road will make you lose traction and it takes more time 0-100kmh. So dry road- ECS off - maybe... But wet road ECS sport - beats it every time. Rly depends on road condition.
You only fly with a RS model
Guess you haven't driven S or RS model
