Are Audi's normally this much of a pain in the rear? I've never had a BMW or Mercedes (I've owned both) dealer tell me they need to special order some software, they just hook the car up to the computer and download whatever they need, never a 'special order' mess!
Odd that a service dept. would need to order an MMI update - it's done through the Audi online system. The map updates use a DVD and license - maybe he confused the two.

Currently, the map updates for pre-2016 C7s can only be done by the dealer service dept. The $300-$400 charge is not only for the cost of the license but the labor charge. It takes 2-3 hours to install and while a tech doesn't have to babysit the process for the whole time, it takes up a service bay.
