MY19 new Mechatronics unit

So I was browsing Etka, it looks like the MY19 models have a revised valve body for the transmission. Anyone take delivery of a 2019 notice a difference?

Thanks for sharing. Any changes to MMI hardware? Looks like 2019 A4 may support google earth overlay after 2020.

Audi changed the disclaimer on their site. Now its " Online services are subject to change. Google Earth™ service may not be available after December 2020."

So MY2019 cars will likely lose access to Google Earth. There doesn't appear to be any hardware upgrades.

The MMI control unit went under a few revisions for this model year.

They're switching to the tiled satellite view from Google Maps, and the current party line is that that will continue for MY2019 and newer beyond Dec 2020.
