Hi, looking at selling my A3 very soon and getting an A5 3.0 Tdi sport or s-line probably around a 2008/2009 model. I understand the fantastic difference in the B&O sound system but I'm at a total loss when it comes to the difference in the Sat Nav and MMI options that were installed, the only...

Good luck and hope you find the cause soon...
