Just a quick heads up. Before getting in the car I turned the WiFi of my s8 off. Whilst sat in the car, and before switching on the ignition, I connected my s8 to car with USB. I then started the ignition and was able to use android auto with Internet. My car had no Internet connection but it's...

Once myAudi is set up I'll see how it all works and whether I am able to access Amazon music without extra cost from Audi. Perhaps, once my audi connect is sorted, I'll be able to make more sense of it all. Perhaps then things like online traffic, etc. Will use the internal SIM card. BTW my car...

Interesting read. No, the tag didn't come with the key. The sales rep at the dealership first pretended he knew nothing about a car code. The said their electrician will be able to sort it. Dunno how he's going to do that. I've read that Audi have to issue me with a new tag. That can take a...

Thx @cosmicblue. I knew all the stuff you mentioned. It's just the pain and rigmarole of messing with the phone prior to plugging it into the USB before being able to use android auto. It's not a life threatening must have, just a soothing nice to have. :) One I get my 10 digit car code from...

Cheers cosmicblue. Jeez, what you doing up at that time? That's cleared things up a bit. But I'm still not completely in the know. You write, that your method is to use rSAP. So you use this to connect your phone via WiFi to the car using rSAP. You stream amazon music through the mmi. But...

So you don't use the internet connection of your phone via bluetooth/rSAP? Do you use any online mmi services? If this is the case, do you just connect your phone to the car via usb and use online services/apps provided by your phone?

Hi Dave, ahhhh! So it means I would have to switch off the rSAP function prior to using Android Auto? I'd also have to disconnect the wifi connection from my phone to car and use the internet connection of my phones SIM to allow internet access for Android Auto? Sounds logical.

Hi Charlie, thx for your reply. I'm sure it would work if I used the system as you do. But without rSAP the Audi would have no internet connection. RSAP (Remote SIM Access Profeil) allows the car to use the SIM card of your phone, as if it were fitted in the car, via bluetooth.

Hi fellow Audi fans! I've followed this forum for many years now, but this is my first post. I excitedly picked up my A4 Alload last Tuesday. It's a mid 2017 model. It has the MMI Plus system with audi phone box. First thing I thought I'd do is connect it up to my phone and see what this thing...

That is one ugly car!:p :hubbahubba:

Have you thought about trying the SEAT Exeo dash? The dash itself is from the audi a4 b7 cab. The rest of the interior is from the audi a4 b7 limo and/or avant. Should fit.

Very nice indeed!
