I was shocked to learn that Audi didn't support Bluetooth streaming until the 2013 models, and I'm looking to add A2DP support to my 2012 with an aftermarket solution. Has anyone tried the Viseeo solutions: http://www.viseeo.com/ugC_ShowroomIt...&hidClickNum=Y ?

They look promising and even integrate with the MMI controls, but I haven't seen any online reviews confirming whether or not they actually work.

Link isn't working for me, I bought one of these and I am waiting for it to arrive to see if it works. Would know by the end of the week.

That looks really cool. It does appear to require some rather extensive modifications though. It appears to need an entire new cable as well as some sort of control unit installed. Loved the ability to take a non-nav car and make it use your iphone or droid. Where is this distributed in the US and how much does it cost? I couldn't find any 3G MMI models on eBay. The SKU # DFE-31C does pull up much in Google outside of the Youtube video.

Jprime please post a review when you get yours. I'd be interested in a real opinion on it.

The only extensive modification is the microphone, and I'm not at all sure why that's needed. The MMI interface should be able to talk to the in-car mic already. (Then again, all Audi needs to do is update the MMI software to support BT streaming, and apparently they're incapable of doing that...)

I'll post a review if / when I purchase one.

Try this, http://audia2dp.weebly.com/index.html, I bought one when it came out. Every once in a while music cuts out, but other wise it works well.

Bad news. The device from eBay does not work with mmi.

It receives power, and the Bluetooth pairing with my iPhone was successful. However, when I hit play, the mmi screen says "initializing device" but never plays music.

I tried the device with another iPod speaker dock that I have and it worked perfectly. There must be something about mmi that it expects to read on that plug and it doesn't work with the Bluetooth device I bought, oh well.

You can confirm it works with nav?

Yes, I have the 3G Mimi with navigation and works just fine
