* ATTN * It seems as if M. Autovlog has pretty much thrown in the towel on his Y-T channel. At one time he cranked content almost daily and NOW . . . the submissions are down to once a month at best. Somehow he has lost ALL dedication and focus. Notification to ABORT strenuously recommended. The demise of M. Autovlog in full force. 🗣️. 👉 📈. 🔍. 🤔

You can launch the rs7 in any mode. If the car isn’t in dynamic mode, just flick gear lever back one more to engage sport gear. To prevent it from bugging down, hold esc button for 4 second to completely turn off traction management.

[@hamitbe]

Where the hell is this guy? Did he give up? It has been over a month and no vid. This blows😕

[@kbruce23]

You can individually adjust each air strut/corner in vagcom, it takes like 15 minutes, but your default heights may be slightly off

[@chadlea6116]

I really liked Mike’s channel early on but it’s essentially dead now.

[@markhanna7151]

[@sk8hillzz]

Mike, I am so sorry your channel is dying :( Truthfully, I would recommend going back to a Ferarri if you feel you can revive the channel. The state it is now the viewership and engagement will be really low. I will be rooting for you to succeed even if you do decide to leave youtube.

"Scrapes" *Rubbing!* Your videos are just hilarious! Love it! Very entertaining ;)

[@eduardocampos2214]

I had the same issue on my MK6 R and when I took it to an VW specialist, he told me to do alignment, but he said the way we do it, we have to adjust the cross member and the issue stopped, no more rubbing when turning left! If you look at your front tires, one sticks out little more than the other one.

[@jgus9164]

By chance do you have a recommendation for the spacers and lowering links? I just bought a C7 RS7 and love the look on your car.

[@streetmuscle2155]

Ya looks sick lowered but what happens when you hit bumps? Does it rub every time you hit a little bump?

[@sergeshkolniy9172]

Mike , i had my prevoius rs7 and s6 lowered with links , and rs7 that i have at the moment , you need to remove ftont fender liner fender clips , just get a short philips screw driver , and feel with your fingers in the middle closer to front doors , its a huge clip , just remove them on both sides and 95% of scrapes that you had will dissapear

[@kcw9313]

You'd think by now one would learn that lowering anything with an air suspension is sus at best, horror show at worst. Reliability, drivability, performance ALL suffer.

[@Matt.e_Black]

Highly disagree. 4 years plus on factory air suspension cars with lowering links and flawless performance/operation

[@epicon6]

It 100% depends on the car model and how it's lowered. It's in no way a given that it fails.

[@TVBCStudios]

Dont apologize. Im glad you made this video. I have a '21 VW Arteon Premiu Rline which ironically is similar in shape and size to the RS7, but definitely not power. LOL. Just swapped out the stock Continental ProContact tires for Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4's. I'm thinking about putting spacers on with my stock 20" wheels. I would lower it, but I know my wife will scrape the front splitter in a couple areas near our home. (Married Life!)

[@nileshacharya3691]

so what happened with Audi and the turbo re-call. Did they come through and do the recall?

[@Davidmccrossen]

It's possible with age of the car that the air bags are dry and cracking. The right one might be leaking air just enough that it's not supporting the cars weight when you make the left turn. I would look into getting all the air bags replaced.

[@cywoods60]

I love your set up ⤴

I appreciate the info. Don’t pay attention to those people who say this is not what to do to your car. They only drive stock cars and are scared to mod them 👍

[@mikehoulihan6006]

How many blown out tires when you hit a potholes?

[@bobleone1381]

Any chance this car was in an accident before you purchased it? If the left front was in a minor "fender bender", it might bee slightly out of alignment........frame....or fender alignment. That would explain why it is only on the left and not bi-lateral.

[@NateWithVehicles]

You should be able to do the launch control in manual mode and use the paddles to then up shift. In my 2018 Audi RS3 I can do that so I'm assuming you can in the RS7. This should be able to give you a faster 0 - 60 time without it bawging around 60 mph. Hope this helps! The car looks amazing lowered!

[@MarioJones]

Stance looks damn good to me.

[@jamesgandia8099]

Drive in comfort mode daily. Put in dynamic just to have fun. Looks good though. Maybe a wheel well trim job?

[@GurtejSingh1000]

Get narrower spacers in the front … ur weight on the driver side is causing the issue …the tire is touching the fender

[@rosscarver4546]

It should auto-level to compensate for the weight. That’s the beauty of the bags.

[@rosscarver4546]

Get a Tcu tune to shift higher rpm and you can hit 60 without shifting to third gear…

[@mcgink]

Mike! You should take it to summit point West Virginia! There’s a great track youd enjoy!

Why you just didnt buy the lowering module???? With lowering module comes with a app also where can you choose the lowering mm easily.

[@larrywinchester8117]

No referral code for Mods/Miles?

[@jerbele]

Get a nice transmission tune, if they make one for the 8 speed. I know the S7 definitely has multiple out there but DSG.

[@kylemeitzler6602]

Also your tire pressures are pretty high for good launches. Drop them to 35psi and try

[@aboali999999aa]

also it might just solve the rubbing

[@rotary-fd3sgaming597]

Could roll the fenders, tires will also get a better 0-60. Love the Rs7 videos keep emm coming.

[@justinpimentel8569]

Alot my cars use do same that I had lowered ,one side more then the other might be just car little movement from age

[@evoguy23]

Maybe you should learn how to roll fender or do some of the work yourself to fix the rubbing? You come off as a guy that just keeps taking his car into the mechanic shop to get every minor thing done wihout understanding how the different mods affect eachother.

[@alvinmousseau1100]

[@ernest6980]

Why would it rub in launch 🚀 control your going straight not turning left or right

Hi Mike, maybe its just the extra weight in the drivers seat............ just saying !

You need VCDS. The system is what I use to adjust my height on my VW Phaeton air suspension all thru the computer. Your rs7 can be adjusted in mm using your lowering links. You just need the vcds software.

[@ShiVolv]

lol i have walked that trail you started at!

[@coryjohnson3429]

A close second to the Goonzquad boys R8 Decennium, this RS7 is a favorite of mine. The air lowering systems can be a PITA. As cool as they are I would prefer to go without.

TGK Motorsport makes adjustable links that aren’t plastic …can fine tune them

[@Nate-Da-Gr8]

I still would have it checked just in case by a wheel n tire place maybe something simple I'm not saying ur complaining I like the lower stance but just might be something simple. And I think u can change shift stuff with programming and stuff people out there got those programmers

Hey Mike you should really tint the windshield...

[@nomorenonsense]

Man that hurts. I know you are making content but having a beautiful rs7 that can't correctly operate in dynamic is just silly. Having that little space also doesn't look correct on such a great sedan. This isn't a Ferrari. Go back to stock height, you got your content.

[@twistedswed]

Hej, investera i en Asc box istället för länkarmar, då kan du styra allt via en app på millimetern. Den kostar dock en slant, men helt klart värt det.

[@GaryWrightMusic]

More than likely rubbing on one side due to the air suspension auto leveling. You have to provide clearance to account for this. Or possibly disable auto leveling for a more static ride.

I have a 14 rs7 with spacers and ecs lowering links, I had to take off the 1" lowering links and went to the . 5" ones so that I could launch the car. Stock 21s as well on mine. .5" lowering links made it perfect

[@kylemeitzler6602]

Got To the half inch or try some 10mm up front and put the 15mm on back
