Battery history data (vehicle report and transport mode)
With the current Release 2.5, users now have battery history data at their disposal under vehicle report, and vehicle functions and the display of the battery state under transport mode. Many Audi Service partners had requested the development of such a function. It can be used in a number of areas, for example in vehicle delivery, in the first-hand (cars up to one year) and used car segment, and in direct customer communication.

Display fluid levels
CAR ASYST APP 2.5 makes it possible to have various fluid levels displayed, for example the oil and DEF fluid level. Users are thus given up-to-date information on how many engine starts are possible and what the remaining mileage is. This makes it possible to reliably estimate service dates and repair shop intervals.

Reset service interval
With just a few clicks you can reset service intervals already read directly in the CAR ASYST APP.
