Default C5 floor question.

I saw a pic where there was a little foot rest for your left foot in a C5. Do they all have this?
I know what it's for but the pic was of an A4.

It's called a "dead pedal".

On all models... Just a little something for your left foot to do while working out the right one...

As they have all said - it's called a dead pedal, and it's a place for your left foot in "spirited" driving when not otherwise occupied, if you know what I mean! It does help to have a place to brace yourself when driving on curving roads for instance.

Yes i have one in my 03 it's got a chrome cover on it now but i really never use it and i don't really know how many people do use it maybe if you are on along trip and your left foot gets tired.
