In Individual Drive Mode brake characteristics can be chosen between Normal and Dynamic. I have a hard time feeling any difference between the two and there’s no clear explanation in the user manual about each of these characteristics. Does anyone know what is the difference? This is about brakes with no recuperation mode found on T4 MY2020.

I've got a my22 B4 and cannot differentiate any difference between the two.

I felt that Dynamic generally required more pedal pressure....

Evening All i do find driving in Dynamic has a more input when driving
i was away on a trip for 3 weeks when i got in to drive the brakes were sized it had taken me some time to get them working so no matter what you do when in park the car dose not like to be left on for number of days so watch OUT

I didn’t notice a difference when I tried it - might need to try for a longer period…

I presumed it was more / less assistance given depending on which mode…
