Where is the one-touch start for the Audi A6?

Audi A6's one-touch start normally activates with a single press, but to protect the engine, it's best to start it in two steps. First, press the one-touch start button of the Audi A6. The Audi A6's dashboard lights up, and the vehicle's power supply is activated. At this point, the fuel pump starts working, and the fuel system builds up oil pressure. Press the brake pedal of the Audi A6 to prepare for engine start. Press the one-touch start button of the Audi A6 again to start the engine. The tachometer on the dashboard begins to operate, indicating that the vehicle has started.
In the Audi A6, the position of the one-touch start button is indeed quite crucial. It is typically located in the center console area on the right side of the steering wheel, near the air conditioning panel or next to the gear lever, within easy reach when you're seated. I remember the first time I drove my friend's A6—the button was designed very ergonomically, placed in the most visible spot so you could find it without looking down, avoiding distractions while driving. If you can't locate it, first check whether the instrument cluster is illuminated, as the button's position may vary slightly depending on the model year. For example, older versions might have it slightly below the steering wheel, while newer models position it more forward. Before driving, make sure the key is inside the car or in your pocket and within close enough range for the sensor to detect it. Overall, this design enhances startup convenience, eliminating the hassle of inserting a traditional key—a small but modern touch from Audi. Just be sure not to let clutter cover the button during regular maintenance.
