Hello all
here,where i live, only 3000 A3 2.0T gasoline models had been sold at the last year after the VW disel crisis.
Among them, 200 A3 were premium class of which equipped with dyaminc rear lamp, led headlight, VC and
smart phone interface... its been sold out too quickly, so i had to bought a vehicle without those.
However, mine also have USB connector for the smart phone interface.
I've temporary changed my MIB unit with that of the premium one, which was
surprisingly MIB1 not MIB2, and i confirmed that i could use smart phone interface with help of private car repair shop(not relative to audi center).
After i saw it worked, i had to returned it again.
The two MIB units have same partnumber, but mine is not working.
So i was guessing mine also have hardware to work however, some kind of legal key? is missing.
I asked to locoal audi dealership, however they told me that they will not offer retrofit soultion.
I'm wondering about the below link:
https://shops.audi.com/en_GB/web/zu...for-the-audi-smartphone-interface-8v0051472-9
"Retrofit solution for the Audi smartphone interface". Here in south korea, audi korea do not offer such item.
Q1. May i ask what is that? Is it a document? how can i activate it?
Q2. Can i simply order that and bring it to my local dearship to activate it?
I also find that the above site noted that:
"Suitable for Audi A3 with MIB2 High Scale or MIB2 Premium and with electrical interface for external use, AUX-IN and USB and with special product upgrade measures"
But i've seen that that the functiong one was not MIB2 but MIB1 of same part number as mine.
Navigation, telephone system with bluetooth pairing, music and voice control system are available in my MIB.
Q3. Why they stated it's for MIB2? MIB1 can not take the retrofit solution?
Thank you for reading the long story. Any advice would be greateful.
