I guess you were lucky. iOS8 had widespread well documented Bluetooth issues. There were definitely Audi owners that had issues until about 8.0.2 or 8.0.3 came out. I had an iPhone 3 and then an iPhone 4. It didn't get along with the Bluetooth in my 2007 S4. Got tired of it and switched to my current Windows Phone. It worked great with the S4 and initially with the RS5 as I said until it was updated to WP8.1. The moral of the story is that eventually Bluetooth problems crop up as the car gets older and the phones get newer updates. The iPhone gets more love from Audi now, so it might be the better bet.

Resuscitating this thread with a further question. I just got a call from the dealer indicating my transmission needed an update. Q: does this update mean the MMI will be updated to the current version, or, is this just a one-off. It will take an hour per the service rep.

The transmission update has nothing to do with any MMI updates. They are completely separate.

I went in today complaining of being dropped to 2G throughout the day and about my bluetooth not being detected often and was offered the latest MMI update to see if that fixes the issue. 2 hours later, the service tech comes and says I can't proceed to update the MMI without being flagged for TD1 due to my APR tunes

If you're still under warranty, you've only delayed the inevitable. The TD1 will happen the next time the computer phones home to the mother ship.

How can you tell which version you have?

John Simcox

Settings/MMI Set-Up (TRH Button) scroll down to the bottom of the menu options and you will see Version Information, select that

Rjim

Thanks John. My version ends in _p0726.

So even though the service adviser didn't perform the update and warned me, the next time I'll be flagged? I was going to get the tune removed in order to prevent the TD1, but if I'm doomed, I suppose I'll just take it in again without removing it (cost $110 to remove/add tune)

Any time your car is in for service they hook it up to the mother ship. If you have a tune, it will be flagged. Also, removing it may not help as previous performance data is usually stored in the ECU and will still report the car was tuned.

A TD1 means you are on the "list" for warranty purposes. If you have a defect and Audi determines the cause can be related to the tune, the warranty for that issue will be void. If you are out of the standard warranty, remember you have an 8 yr/80K emissions warranty that could come into play as well.
