Cant turn off ESP

[wer1331]

Hey guys, I just got a CPO Audi R8 a couple of weeks ago. I just realized that I can't turn off my ESP, I tried holding the ESP button from 1 second to 5 seconds and it still wont turn off. Do you guys know what's wrong with it? Or should I bring it to the dealer? Thanks

I have a manual and both can be disabled as described in the owners manual. Do you have an R-tronic? Does it have to be in Park or Neutral? Dunno...

Yeah mine is R-Tronic. I followed the manual and still cant work. I've tried it with the gear engage but not in neutral tho

The gear should not matter. Press and hold ESP button for ~5 seconds and you'll get the ESP light blinking on the dash and a warning in the MFD.

Tried it for 5-10 seconds in Neutral and Manual mode no luck.. My father's V10 single click it turns off, so I guess I have to bring it to the dealer

Try not holding it down. Just press it briefly and release immediately.

There are two options:
- Single, quick push - Turns off ASR
- Sustained (5 sec) push - Turns off ASR & ESP

Yes, certified pre-owned. Tried everything still doesn't work. Already booked for service for Monday. Weird thing with the V10 everything works
