In most cases, this happens with A8 cars when remote starting. I have found that it seems to be a systems startup up timing/sequence issue. By unlocking the doors using my key fob first, then locking the doors, and THEN remote starting it, I’ve eliminated the problem every time. I never have the problem with the HVAC controls or with any drive mode settings disappearing. And now I remote start with confidence every time.

Give it a try!
