Hi,

I've had my 6 for 6 days , so far been mostly drving to and from work, one word:
"WOW"
Please excuse the following dumb question as I'm a newb, but is active steering on by default , or is there a setting or button to press to turn it off and on etc ?

Congrats and welcome! Yes the as is on but that leads to my question. I've read that if you turn the dsc of or alternativly to dtc mode the as will be turned off. Is this true?
Cheers
