You can only run the M.I.B tool on MIH2 units (so the MIB2 High).I wanna try this but I am nervous about bricking my MIB
Hello friend. I want to do a map update on my A3 8V FL (2017). Car has a virtual dashboard, so I guess it has MIB2 High? I have two question about updating:Mine just finished, just under 40mins for the EU 2022 map update
Hey mate,Hello friend. I want to do a map update on my A3 8V FL (2017). Car has a virtual dashboard, so I guess it has MIB2 High? I have two question about updating:
1) License for my navigation updates is valid until March of this year, does that mean that I can update without hack? Since general procedure from Audi involves also updating map vis SD card...
2) Concerning software version of the MMI, I see on your photo that is version 1326, and my is only 0875. How do I update software on MMI? Is that different than updating map and navigation?
Since I am recent owner of this car, any help would be apricated. Attached is the photo of my MMI.
Thank you very much for the answer. I understand for the maps. Can I use maps downloaded from the link in this thread to update the navigation? Or I need to download maps only form Audi website?Hey mate,
With VC Dash you have a MIH2 (MIB2 High) unit yes.
1) License for my navigation updates is valid until March of this year, does that mean that I can update without hack? Since general procedure from Audi involves also updating map vis SD card...
Yes, if you have an Audi license active you can just update online.. You MIH2 unit will have a connection to the Audi servers. However, downloading 25GB over the 2G in your car can take a long time so it's quicker to do with the SD-card indeed. I've read that the Audi servers were sh*t the last couple of months so I would rather just go for the SD-card option indeed.
Just download the maps, put them on your FAT32 SD-card and go into the REM menu (hold NAV + MEDIA for 10sec) then choose update > SD-card slot 1 > and let the system find the update and start it.
NOTE: NEVER SHUT YOUR ENGINE OFF DURING THE UPDATE AND MAKE SURE START/STOP IS DISABLED. WHEN YOU LOSE POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF AN UPDATE YOU CAN POTENTIALLY BRICK YOUR SYSTEM.
I will check this and give you information.2) Concerning software version of the MMI, I see on your photo that is version 1326, and my is only 0875. How do I update software on MMI? Is that different than updating map and navigation?
This is the version of the DB of the navigation, do you have the latest firmware on your system? You can check that by going into the REM menu (hold NAV + MEDIA button for 10sec) then a red menu appears and choose the 'Version information'. Post it to me in DM and I can see if you are on the latest firmware.
If you need to update this, it's very simple. I can help you out with that, just send me a PM and I will share the firmware with you (official firmware) to update your MIH2 unit.

It does not bring any extra functions but I recall in the latest firmware was a fix for GPS and something with sound.Sorry for double posting.
Here are photos of MMI. I don't need latest firmware if it does not bring any functionality with that.

No, I am on 2019/2020 maps.PS, you are on 2015 maps as far as I can see.
Hello. Nice to hear. I am still nervous to update mine, I don't know why. You used tutorial from this thread or some other?Updated today, went through instructions as laid out, red menu, green menu then applied the 30GB of Europe 2022 Maps. Very smooth process

Hi, I would like to do just lifetime Map updates on my 2018 SQ7, I already have on my unit android auto and video in motion activated. So, for activating lifetime Map updates I still need to make step 10.? or what I have to do for activating that option? Thank you for your answer.Ok guys, I got it figured. You will have to be prepared to "hack" your unit with custom firmware to run on your MIB unit. Well, it's not even that, it's firmware running from an SD-card and installing a bootloader into the unit enabling you to run custom scripts on your unit.
Next to the map update it also enables CarPlay, Google Auto and Video in Motion + unlocks lifetime maps (so you can just download maps and update the database of your current model). So yes, it's true that the MIB is "licensed" normally but this patch will make the unit think it has lifetime maps updates and will hapily accept any map update you feed it year after year .
Download: https://mibsolution.one/?module=fileman§ion=do&page=download&paths[]=/ROOT/1/18/M.I.B_3.1.6_20220120.7z
This will download a tool M.I.B. (More Incredible Bash). Get yourself an SD card and extract the content of the 7zip folder to your FAT32 formatted SD-card.
When done so put the SD-card in SD-slot 1 (important), do not put it in slot 2 but in slot 1!
Note: Start your car or make sure it's on power leads to charge battery while updating. If you stop or turn down the power in the middle of an update you'll brick your unit and render it useless.
This tutorial looks a bit sketchy and I was sceptical as first aswell but took the leap of faith in the amazing community it has behind this project and it's the best leap I've ever took .
1. Open the REM (Red Engineering Menu) by holding the NAV + MEDIA buttons for aprox 10 seconds.
2. Hit 'update'
3. Hit 'standard'
4. Scroll down and hit 'Start update'.
- This will write a bootloader to your MIB2 unit, it does not interfere with your current Audi firmware. Just let is update as usual. The unit will reboot 3 times during the process.

5. When the car is started up again hold the buttons NAV + RADIO to open the GEM (Green Engineering Menu)
6. Hit "M.I.B"
7. Scroll down untill you see the option to create a backup. For the sake of backups please create one, there is a great community behind this tool that will help you get back on track if you systems crashed or is not functionalling well. But then they will need logs and a backup ofcourse.

Note again. DO NOT, I REPEAT. DO NOT STOP THE UPDATE UNTILL IS SAYS ITS FINISHED. You can scroll down to check up on it's status. Again, NEVER turn off the power during an update. This will brick the device and render it useless, this is not recoverable.

8. When done you can hit the back button to go back to the 'main menu'.
9. To activate CarPlay, Google Auto and Video in Motion hit the option 'patch_ifs_root_aio'
10. Hit the option 'Flash_patched_image |add FECs | CP/AA coding'
11. Let the update run, again do NOT turn anything off untill its completely done.
12. After the update the system will reboot and CarPlay will be active on your system.
View attachment 248868
13. This update also enables the FEC code for lifetime Map updates. Download the maps in the opening post of this topic and put it on your SD-card.
14. Now go through the normal update procedure through the main menu and your MIB unit will accept the new maps and you can enjoy new maps every year they come out.
Note: The GEM menu will be available untill Audi or you renew/update the firmware on the MIB unit.
Hope I can help you guys out with this, if you have any doubts or difficulties PM me I'm happy to help out.
Hey,Hey mate,
With VC Dash you have a MIH2 (MIB2 High) unit yes.

How did you do that navi update on the mib1 high+? I have the navigation update put on sd kart 1 but my mib 1 &high+ didnt instal it. Its the same what you had on youre screen. Must i also instal the patch on mib1 high+?You can only run the M.I.B tool on MIH2 units (so the MIB2 High).
And dont be afraid to brick your system. This will only happen when power lost in the middle of an update.. So just put your battery on charge and turn on the engine and do the update.
Put the update on your SD-card and then go into the RED enigeering menu.How did you do that navi update on the mib1 high+? I have the navigation update put on sd kart 1 but my mib 1 &high+ didnt instal it. Its the same what you had on youre screen. Must i also instal the patch on mib1 high+?
Hey,
just found out about this, and wanted to patch 2016 S3 8V (FL), but I couldn't find patch for my unit. My version is MHI2_ER_AU37X_P3242, MU Software 0679.
Is there any update I need to install first?
Thanks
How do I get onto the red menu the cars a facelift and has different control buttons to the videos I have watched online ?Look for your software version via the red menu, push the 2 silver buttons forward together. I didn't update my firmware I simply flashed the version I had installed
I think I'm in the same situation.How did you do that navi update on the mib1 high+? I have the navigation update put on sd kart 1 but my mib 1 &high+ didnt instal it. Its the same what you had on youre screen. Must i also instal the patch on mib1 high+?
Put the update on your SD-card and then go into the RED enigeering menu.
Then go into update and look for your SD-card and run the update.
Note: do not turn off the engine while updating, even if you think its taking a long time, let it run! Also dont go for a drive, your start/stop could break/brick the system while updating! Either let the engine idle or put the battery on a charger while updating.
