    Sat nav

    Had another look at MMI today. It still says Google in bottom right corner, so assume it's still be getting maps from Google. Not sure what has changed, but map is very slightly different so I am sure update was applied. Perhaps Audi are still using Google maps but in a different underlying...

    Sat nav

    Had my service yesterday. It took me several attempts and phone calls on the day to ensure the request was clear with dealer. Initially when I checked, they said no update required as maps were already up to date. You need to be clear this is update is to continue to have satellite maps after...

    Sat nav

    I was told by Audi digital services this week that some cars can get a software update for this Google nav issue (some Audi/Google contract change at end Dec 2020). They checked and said my A5 September 2017 can get it. It's in to dealer tomorrow for a service and I asked for the nav update, but...

    MY2018 S5 sportback windows software update

    No it didn't fix it. Still got about 1 issue a month after update. Saying that I haven't had any problems for a few months now... Not sure what's changed

    Wireless Charging Retrofit

    Buck thanks but I think that is probably same as mine (2017), the link Strandgaard sent looks promising as newer one but minimal info/dimensions on that site - I'll need to contact them. Anyone had experience of fitting these?

    B9 S5 Engine Whining Noise

    My A5 2.0 Quattro needed new alternator belt and tensioners at 17,000 miles! Think they need a design review

    Wireless Charging Retrofit

    I see the latest wireless charging mat has increased in size. My phone can't lie flat on mine from 2017. Does anyone know if this can be upgraded? Pref OEM Obviously wiring and coding is in place from original. I asked my dealer who said they couldn't do it.

    ACC / S-Tronic malfunction

    Good idea, thanks. I suspect not much as it’s a new update and I hardly ever use this functionality- took me a few weeks to even realise there was an issue.

    ACC / S-Tronic malfunction

    Fix one thing (hopefully) and break another! This software update for ACC has made the traffic ACC function unusable. I mean the feature which in heavy traffic brings car to a stop and moves it off again automatically. Now not smooth - slips the clutch in such a way that I would say verges on...

    MY2018 S5 sportback windows software update

    I also got the update when car was in for something else a couple of weeks ago - I always ask if any window updates as mine has long running issue. Monitoring now. Fingers crossed...

    ACC / S-Tronic malfunction

    I have had two instances of the same issue on my S-Tronic Quattro in past 2 months. On adaptive cruise control (once at 30ish and once at 40ish), flat road. First time I heard a strange noise, was looking around me for source before I realised it was my engine at high revs! Had slipped into...

    Tyres

    Just changed my original Continentals for Michelin CrossClimate+. The Contis only lasted 14k. I wanted something to handle the odd bit of snow we get in Grampian, also the fact that morning and evening temps are < 7 deg for a lot of the year, plus wanted decent wet / dry performance. I didn’t...

    Start/Stop

    It’s more than just neutral, the system decides if it selects neutral and also cuts engine. Car can also disconnect the drive shaft on Quattro (at both front and back making it a 2WD) - this is what they were calling Ultra a while back. Before that they did coast but without the engine cutting...

    Start/Stop

    Not sure why you would want to turn Intelligent Coasting off as it only kicks in under certain coasting conditions and works well to save fuel when you don’t need the engine. If you’re driving hard it’s not going to kick in, and it starts again near instantaneously. All assistance systems are...

    Tyres

    Mine’s a 252 TFSI Quattro (Ultra) SB, at oil change 9000 miles had 5mm rear and 3mm front, which I think is pretty poor for the fronts. Ultra does mean it’s FWD a lot of the time, but almost never get wheel spin so is clearly still using Quattro a fair bit. On the other hand had a 190 diesel...

    Myaudi app / mmi app says my windows are open

    You could try resetting the window controller for the fully open / closed positions. Open window fully, keep holding down button at the bottom for at least an extra 10 seconds (can’t remember exact duration). Then same closing it - hold button at the top for at least 10 secs. The should tell...

    Aircon display underline fault

    That’s a pain but it’s under warranty and at least I know what to expect now
