Default Climate Control settings missing from MMI after upgrade

I have a 2006 A6 4.2 that had its MMI software upgraded to 46.1.0 0805 recently. I just noticed that changes to the inside temp from either side no longer display on the MMI screen nor do the setup options appear.

Is this how the new version behaves?

You may need to go back to the dealer and ask them to perform "Front display control head adaptation"

Check all MMI display to see any thing missing after the update so they can perform all the adaptation to bring them back.

It sounds like an error in installation. Just bring the car back to the dealer and have them correct it.

Did you do the MMI update or the dealer? I just did mine and there were a few that did not install the first time and I had to install a second time to get all of the updates. I think the climate control settings were the ones that were missing until the second update.

So I'm getting ready to do my MMI upgrade too. I will do it myself though. Should I find myself in the same place as the OP, how would one remedy the situation without going to the dealers? What all is involved in this "Front display control head adaptation"? Do they just run the Upgrade disk again? Or is it some setting in the VagCom settings?

Same exact thing happened to me when the dealer upgraded my MMI. Took it in the next day and they fixed it. Not sure if they re-installed it from scratch or were able to apply a patch to fix.

I have exactly the same issue after having the MMI upgraded, except the service advisor at my dealer is telling me that disabling the climate control is part of the MMI update....which is quite obviously bull****!

I would also like to know what is involved in the "Front display control head adaptation", just so I can go and tell them what to do. These idiots can't seem to be able to figure it out themselves!

related question: After the MMI upgrade, I am missing a few menu items- 'Instrument Cluster' or something like that where I could set 'max speed'; can't take it back to the dealer since its been a while since they upgraded etc. How do I get this back using VAG? (Steps?).
