Audi A5 / S5 / RS5 F5 — Traffic Sign Recognition Activation

Bring road signs onto your A5 Virtual Cockpit — the camera already sees them, the display just needs the green light.

€75

One-time · Permanent VIN-verified Same-day confirmation

What You Get

The Audi A5 F5 Sportback ships with a front camera fully capable of reading speed limits and traffic signs in real time — yet on most A5 trims the cluster never shows them, because Audi simply leaves the feature dormant in the configuration. This activation switches Traffic Sign Recognition on through a guided, VIN-specific OEM workflow inside RetroLab Pro: no dealer, no remote desktop, no manual scripts.

How It Changes Behavior

From factorythe A5 front camera is already reading the road, but the Virtual Cockpit stays silent — no speed limits, no overtaking prohibitions, no road sign warnings appear.

After activationlive traffic signs are projected into the Virtual Cockpit (and the head-up display when fitted), exactly the way a factory-coded A5 with TSR shows them.

100% OEM integration — visually identical to factory-coded A5s
Live speed limits and warning signs in the Virtual Cockpit
Also reflected in the head-up display when equipped
1-Click activation through the RetroLab Pro app
Guided, VIN-specific OEM activation workflow
Lifetime VIN licence — reactivate free if a dealer update ever resets it

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this work on the S5 and RS5?

Yes. The S5 and RS5 F5 share the same platform, front camera (PR-QK1) and Virtual Cockpit architecture as the A5 F5. The activation process, pricing (€75), and compatibility requirements are identical across A5, S5 and RS5.

Does TSR work in the UK and Europe?

Yes. Traffic Sign Recognition reads local road signs wherever you drive — UK, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch and other European formats are all supported. The A5, S5 and RS5 F5 are popular across Europe and the UK, and TSR is a frequently requested activation. Even EU-spec F5 vehicles sometimes leave the factory with TSR dormant — this activation enables it permanently for €75.

Does TSR work in the USA and Canada?

Yes. NAR-spec (North American Region) Audi vehicles are fully supported. The activation method, price and workflow are identical to the UK and European process.
