The Audi Q8, SQ8 and RSQ8 4M all shipped with the front camera and Virtual Cockpit hardware for Traffic Sign Recognition — but Audi left the feature dormant. This guide covers TSR activation for UK and European Q8, SQ8 and RSQ8 owners, including the model-year pricing split.
Traffic Sign Recognition activation is available on all Audi Q8 4M model years from 2018 through 2023 — Q8, SQ8 and RSQ8 all included.
The method and price depend on model year:
Both deliver the same full OEM TSR result — speed limits and warning signs live in the Virtual Cockpit and head-up display.
2018–2020 Q8/SQ8/RSQ8: activate via the RetroLab Pro app on iPhone or Windows PC with ENet cable.
2021–2023 Q8/SQ8/RSQ8: guided remote session — ENet cable connected, our team runs the activation live.
Requirements: front camera (PR-QK1) + factory navigation + Virtual Cockpit (not base cluster).
