Audi TTRS 2018 Mk3 8S 2.5L DAZA engine (US) 7 speed DSG
[edit: I now see this has been asked several times in the forum so forgive the newbie duplication.]
Show Launch Control Count and raise limit
[Many cars] have a function called launch control where the driver follows a series of steps and the car will automatically accelerate from a stopped position as fast as possible. In my car, switch to dynamic mode, press and hold traction control for 1 second, full brake with left foot, throttle to 4000 rpm, release brake: boom!
The TCU keeps a count of how many times this has been done; I have a used car and would like to determine how many times the previous owner did it.
Called “Anzahl Launch Control Anfahrt” auf Deutsch.
Appears to be limited to 200 at the factory.
I can’t find it in OBDeleven.
Here are instructions for VCDS copied from different forums.

Launch Control Counter was added in VCDS 18.2 Release in Gearbox Unit. I'm talking about the facelift! I don't know if this also applies to PFL.
[it is available on “pre face lift” 8P 8J 8S… DSG required?]

Using VAGCOM/VCDS:
Go to Module 02-Auto Trans. then select Adv. Meas. Values en check locations 309- Launch Control Counter and 310- Counter for launch control clutch.
Not sure if this applicable for the TTS though. I will be checking mine soon so will try and remember to record what I did and create a post.

EDIT: Launch control counts can be found under VCDS 02-Auto -> Advanced Measurements -> #230. I did some tests tonight and I can tell you my B8.5's definition of LC is very, very loose. I thought I had 3 or 4. I had a lot more. I tried a few techniques tonight.

TCU tune removes the limit

caristaappapp advertises it but doesn’t say where it is.
