Default Bluetooth woes with 2016...

I recently replaced a 2013 A6 with a 2016 model, and I'm having some bluetooth issues. I was wondering if anyone knows of a solution?
I have a Galaxy 5 phone paired to the car. As soon as I turn the car off, my phone starts playing music, every single time. Also, the 'media' volume keeps trying to go to maximum volume, and keeps doing so for quite a while after I exit the car. My 2013 with the same phone caused no such issues.

Wow, you're screwed. Time for a new car. Tell your wife you need an S6 to fix the problem.

Sorry I can't help. Not a serious techie.

I have an Iphone 6 and I was BT the music from the phone and then I had a similar problem as you: after I hang up every phone call the music starts (very embarrassing in a crowded room).

I power reset the phone and all is back to normal.

Rebooting the MMI might also help though it sounds like more of a phone issue. If thst doesn't help, try erasing the Audi and phone bluetooth devices in the MMI and phone settings respectively and do a new pairing. Can't hurt. Something is obviously glitched out in either or both devices that starting over from scratch might help.

i initially had issues getting it to work as well.

i did the following:
- On my iPhone, I made sure that the specific Porsche BT connection is removed.
- I turned off the internet WiFi at home (I think this was the biggest culprit since the system was getting confused).
- Plugged the CarlinKit and started the car.
- Entire pairing process started from scratch and it all worked.

good luck. hope you get it working.
