Audi A4 B9 - Traffic Sign Recognition

Audi A4 B9 / B9.5 Traffic Sign Recognition Activation (RetroLab Pro)

Many Audi A4 B9 / B9.5 vehicles are already equipped with the hardware required for Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR). In many cases, the functionality is present but not activated from factory.

This activation enables full OEM Traffic Sign Recognition on compatible vehicles equipped with a front camera (PR-QK1), navigation, and a supported instrument cluster.

Using RetroLab Pro, you can unlock full factory Traffic Sign Recognition functionality through a guided, VIN-specific OEM activation process — no dealer visit, no remote coding session, and no manual scripts required.
