After setting the pressures, drive it and the indicator should go out. There is also a tire pressure reset procedure which is explained in the manual. Finally, most forget to check the pressure in the spare tire, luxury cars like Audi, Mercs, etc. include a TPMS sensor in the spare.

How does a 70-mph-to-standstill stopping distance of 170 feet grab you? Pretty well, we reckon, since that's a shorter distance than can be achieved by Audi's supersedan, the RS 6, or DaimlerChrysler's own Mercedes E55 AMG (either of which weighs almost a ton less). You have several elements to congratulate for this. First are the rotors, which, at 14.8 inches in diameter up front and 14.0 in the rear, would block from view a large Domino's pizza. Second are the six four-piston calipers. Each front rotor is treated to two calipers for greater clamping force and a larger contact area than one eight-piston caliper. Both front calipers per side act simultaneously but are commanded by separate electronic circuits. Should one circuit fail, the other should remain operational. Last is the \"predictive brake priming\" feature. It recognizes that when you snatch your foot suddenly from the accelerator a panic-braking episode is likely to follow, and it moves the brake pads against the rotors for quicker response than when your foot moves to the brake in a lazier fashion.
