Hello and apologies if this is an often asked question:

I don't need access to google earth and flight/train times, twitter etc but I would like my children to be able to connect to the internet via the car's WiFi hotspot ( we do long journeys regularly and they bring their homework with them and need online access) If I bought a Data Only Sim and loaded it into the slot, would the car then connect to the internet or would I need to subscribe to Audi Connect?

I've only had the car a week and still getting to grips with the MMI so excuse my ignorance.

Many thanks,
 
Yes can just insert SIM into slot and away you go. Should not need to extend license - you can check under Audi Connect and press the wheel to the right to access settings.

Mine is licensed for Wi-fi / hotspot etc. Until 2115.

Unless things have changed recently, Audi did not get around to monetising the Audi Connect licenses. You should just be able to E-Mail Audi UK and they extend the licenses for you.
