    Thanks All!

    Hi All Its that time where I've sold my Audi A4 and switched to the dark side for a change (BMW). Although I've not been a massively active participant - I have read and learnt A LOT on this forum, which has got to be one of the best around for any car. A quick thank you to all of you...

    That'll be a file format issue mate. Use that util - it formats differently to Windows. Audi needs to up their tech thershold - this is retro ******!

    SD card music formats

    Mmmm not sure about that. I've plugged a couple in and they've been fine. Does it not see it as being on line in the 'Source' menu? Or does it give you the "No playable tracks" error. If it's the latter - it may be a formatting issue (appreciate you said its Fat32) - try formatting it with...

    SD card music formats

    Hi All, I eventually got my 4rse around to fixing the problem I had with some files not playing. The problem is a slight deviance in file format that the useless Audi MMI software cannot deal with. All my unplayable files were MP3 and MPEG Layer 1 etc....all should be playable according to...

    Ipod cables for Tech pack high

    Assume you bought this used, mate? If the car comes with AMI (as yours has) the dealer has a duty to give you the right cables! I recently bought a 2010 B* with AMI and the dealer ordered me brand new cables, USB and iPod! Get back to them and give them some grief!

    While we're on the subject of parking sensors.....anyway to enable them at low speed?

    Thanks Wolfie. Yeah - if you press the button they activate. But doesn't seem to be a way to get them to turn on at low speed. For example, in the VW if I was in traffic and crept up to the car in front, the sensors would already be engaged as I was travelling <5mph or so. So I'd get a warning...

    While we're on the subject of parking sensors.....anyway to enable them at low speed?

    Hi Jumping on the bandwagon of Parking Sensor questions...... I switched to my A4 from a VW Touareg. On the VW, the front parking sensors would automatically turn on when the car was below a certain speed - for example, as you pulled into a parking space. Preventing that "BUMP - Oh Sh*t"...

    AC Blower Stopped Blowing

    All good - fixed today in less than 2 hours. Seems to be a 'known' issue rather than a 'common' issue. Motor bushes are known to wear out. Updated part fitted. Happy again....with a clear windscreen!

    Coming upto new fone time... What to replace Iphone 3gs? Is the Iphone5 coming ?

    Have a look at a Windows Phone (HTC, Samsung and Nokia). They're all cheaper than an iPhone and are a great alternative, some may say superior!
