Humdrum

Just a quick update to this. I've been away for a couple of weeks and come back to the car with everything as it was before I left it. I too received the Audi text detailing what we'd already worked out on here. The only thing I wanted to check with someone was whether they've got any data to access the App Store in the MMI, it says I should have 25gb for free but I assume that's for the navigation etc. It's no big deal cos I can use my phone for data if I want to play around with the MMI App Store - but I was just curious.

I had 2 bars on my MMI reception display when I did it. One other thought I did have, which I've yet to try, is setting my phone up as a hotspot and connecting to that as WIFI in the settings on the car because I have better reception on my phone than the car. This was only to access the store so I could add apps directly to the car just to try them out (Spotify etc), not a dealbreaker as I have everything I need on my phone anyway.

This is what I did & it did take some time, which was a little nerve wracking. So far the settings have not been reset & I haven’t been asked to login or set the car up again.

Yes, I just reset the MMI in settings on the car. I didn’t touch the app on my phone but I did use the login details for the app to input that information into my MMI after it reset.

I’m sure someone has suggested this already but would it be a good idea for everyone to say which version of the MMI software they have? As I’ve mentioned previously I’m on 4143 & after I reset it myself it has so far not lost any of my settings.

Hi All, I've just joined to add my initial problems with the MMI. I got my A3 Black Edition facelift model delivered last Monday and had the same issues as you all seem to be having - every time I came back to the car it wanted me to login again, it was set to a random radio station & the privacy and personal settings weren't being stored. After a few frustrating journeys I decided to reset the MMI in the settings which took a while & was pretty nerve wracking; when I first set the car up after delivery I used the code from the scratch card that came with the keys & the QR code thing, so after the reset I decided to try using the My Audi login details instead and so far (touch wood) everything is working as it should and the various settings are stored. I'm not sure if that helps anyone but I thought I'd share. The only thing I've done differently is not using wireless CarPlay, switching off wireless charging as it makes my phone ridiculously hot & I've also updated the map. Interestingly my MMI software is on 4143 which seems to be the one people are having a bit more joy with & where I set the car up had 2 bars on the LTE display if that helps!
