The dreaded 'vehicle cannot be reached' error
#21
I followed the steps of logging out and back in, then deleting and re-adding the key user, but this did not fix it for me I still have the same issue, I can refresh the car status but remote climate control and locking gives a vehicle cannot be reached error.
Is there a step I am missing?

Mine generally works pretty well, but I've been getting the error quite a bit more lately.
Shame they can't have it join a local WiFi or use Bluetooth to directly control, I can see it from our kitchen and the app just spins away and then comes up with the error.

Got a new message today when trying to retrieve vehicle status, I can’t remember it verbatim but it was something along the lines of “to preserve vehicle battery vehicle updates are limited to a few times per day.”
First time I’ve ever seen that message, it came right after I sent a start charging command to it, I was updating the status to confirm the charging started as the app wasn’t showing a change, but I wonder if that comes off as two vehicle update commands in a row. The message hasn’t repeated when I tried it again, but the vehicle status fails every time now.

So this has been happening more and more and now I can’t ever seem to get the car to respond. It does update the app for charge levels, but any commands always come back with the dreaded message. Parked in the same spot as always with great reception, used to work flawlessly.
I guess I’ll have to try some reset procedures. Grrrr Audi.

I finally have this resolved. The fix involved logging in to the Audi Connect website, which told me my password had expired. I created a new password, then went through the steps of removing the key user and adding back. After that, I can now control locking and climate from the app.

The only way I have been able to resolve this is by logging out of the app (iOS), and removing the key user in the MMI. After logging back in with the key user information I then logged back in to the My Audi app and all was working. You can also try deleting the app, reinstalling, and logging back in before removing the key user information. Unfortunately, many issues with their software/servers.

I also fixed this by logging out on the car, and then relogging into the app (which took forever to find the right password). I actually never relogged in on the car yet, but the app started working after logging in again - can control like before.
Come on Audi, these sort of glitches shouldn't stick around.
