What is the reason for the Audi pre-sense brake warning sound?
2 Answers
Audi pre-sense brake warning sound occurs when the system detects that the driver may be falling asleep during prolonged low-speed driving or when the steering wheel remains stationary or changes frequently at low speeds. The system will then issue a brake warning to alert the driver. Here is some relevant information about Audi: 1. Logo: Its emblem consists of four interlocking rings. Currently a subsidiary of Volkswagen Group, headquartered in Ingolstadt, Germany. 2. Brand positioning: Audi focuses on the mid-to-high-end automotive market, mainly producing sedans and SUVs.
When the Audi suddenly warns with a braking sound while driving, it can be quite startling, but don't panic. This is mostly the system working normally—it automatically brakes and sounds an alarm when it detects potential danger. For example, if the distance to the car ahead is too close or if a pedestrian suddenly crosses, it can trigger the warning. Of course, it's also common for sensor issues—like when the radar or camera is covered in mud, dust, or rain and fog, causing misjudgment. I've driven several Audis, and cleaning the detection area on the front bumper usually helps. The system is so sensitive to protect us from collisions. If it frequently sounds, it's best to check the settings or visit a professional shop to inspect the sensor calibration. Safety comes first, so don't take it lightly.
