Service - any known fixes to ask for?

[sotondjt]

Hi,

My '16 plate Avant is in for it's first service next week. Are there any fixes I should get checked while it's in?

Has anyone had the MMI brightness flicker fixed?

Missing warning that a phone is left plugged in to USB when you leave the car? Works great in a '17 plate A3 with phone box but doesn't in a A4 with the phone box!

I've had the rear trim re-glue fix done already.

Cheers

What rear trim reglue? Is this the plastic blades from the avant?

Mine tells me when I have left the phone in the car, but you have to enable within the mmi settings. My mmi doesn't flicker....

@holly35 - Yes the black plastic trim either side of the rear window on an Avant.

@cuke2u - I can see the option in the MMI and even adjust the volume of the warning. But it doesn't work if I leave a USB connected phone in the car. I have a friend with an A3 and it works OK in that with the same settings. I've seen more suggestions that the A4 only works if you have a Qi wireless charging phone in the phone box.

What age is your A4?

Mine is just over one years of age. Not tested my phone with the usb though, I was just suggesting the setting in case you missed it...
