Q7 4M All wheel steering help please

[maxw]

Hi all

ive got a q7 2016 all wheel steering and can some one who has this on there q7 would you kindly answer some questions please

if the car is sat still running and you turn the steering on full lock as you stand outside the car watching the rear wheels can you see them move and turn?

or do they only turn when car is moving?

even when I turn into my drive full lock and get out to look at the rear wheels they still look straight

I know in high speed there controlled by computer but surly they should turn when I'm turning in the drive?
May be not when stopped but if I stop half way through a turn and get out the rear wheels should be turned a little?

really hope some one can help on this as worried it's not fitted to the car

thanks all

When I get mine, I will be looking to find someone local to me or compare to a one @ my local Audi to see if there is actually any difference on the SLOW tight turns :-) (y)

Just reading that , the Q7 starts at $54800 that's under 38 grand !

I think that's before sales tax which is around 10% but is still cheap! I guess they benefit from such a big market. I get more frustrated about the lake of consistency in options between markets.

They do only turn 5 degrees from center which is not a lot but that should still be noticeable at full lock.

Thanks guys on your help

ive watched a few you tube clips etc but nothing shows the rear wheels steering at a standstill or moving slow so still stuck on this

i did see a interesting you tube clip of a guy had his car on axle stands showing the movement of the rear wheels but not at slow speeds or standing

so what I can work out so far it's prob above 10mph or so

so will either have to get under the car or pop to the dealer and put on a ramp or ask for more info

was hopping another Q7 owner had AWS also to get more thoughts on this

i was hopping it would help me park in my drive but deffently no help with that
