🚨 2024 Audi R8: Emergency Neutral
The R8 was discontinued after the 2023 model year; no 2024 R8 exists in production form.
🧰 Drafted with AI under the editorial review of Chris Hackleman & Jeff Moore — details like the exact override location may vary by trim; verify visually before prying anything.
⚠️ Chock the wheels first — neutral means the car can roll. Set the parking brake while you work, never stand downhill of the vehicle, and try a 12-volt jump before any override: power fixes most stuck-in-park problems instantly.
The procedure
- The Audi R8 production ended with the 2023 model year.
- If you have a vehicle labeled as a 2024 R8, it may be a leftover 2023 model with updated VIN dating, or a special/custom vehicle.
- Refer to the 2023 R8 procedure for shift lock override.
- If this is a genuine different vehicle, consult the owner's manual or Audi directly.
With zero electrical power
See 2023 R8 procedure if this is actually a 2023 model with different VIN year designation.
