Default Bluetooth

Hello everyone I have a 2009 a4 and I am trying to figure the sound out. Can I use the bluetooth for music or is that just my phone? If not has anyone tried the bluetooth plug in you can buy? And when I just drove it last night it doesn't have the cool lights. I am so pissed. I thought they came with all a4 after 2009.Sorry just complaining. Thanks

You bought a car without looking at the headlights? Bro....

If your Audi has the iphone hookup in the glove box, you can get a Tune2air dongle thing that will allow bluetooth music streaming. Factory music streaming wasn't added till 2013.

You can't stream music with BlueTooth, it's only for calling. look in the glove box there should be an outlet to plug a specific cable. Im using sd card for mine

I have the Tune2Air av3000 model, and it works perfectly. You must make sure you set it up correctly if you want it to interrupt music when a phone call comes in.
Set up correctly, it works exactly like factory. Love mine.

Are you talking about the LED DLRs? If so, they should be there. That wasn't an option. The previous owner probably just turned them off in the MMI. Go to Car|Vehicle Settings|Lighting I believe and turn them on.

Thanks super I was so excited and then not. It just give you that option but mine are the orange color and not the white light that I love. So I dont think they are LED.

You won't believe but I made the exact same mistake about halogen/LED headlights. I thought A4 B8 2.0T Quattro Premium were all the same. I overlooked + trim. A friend let me drive his premium+ s-line that really impressed me. I wasn't even looking at Audi (or any luxury brand); was almost settled on a Tiguan after researching Sorento, Forester, Santa Fe. So did not research much on Audi A4 and when one showed up nearby with clean carfax, low miles etc and looked the same as his (not really!! now I know), white/beige, we got excited and bought it. No cool DRLs, navigation and size were big disappointments, however, a few days later while trying to load some stuff at homedepot when my son said, dad, the back seat doesn't fold, we were really shocked! Not an easy transition from Honda/Toyota to these German cars........
