Are you able to walk us through the specific settings to achieve that picture? Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, it's been a while. I played around with the VC in a 2017 A4 loaner and from what I remember I was able to display the upcoming maneuvers on the VC just like you can display them on the center screen, but I don't remember exactly how. I specifically remember this, because the upcoming exits/maneuvers is one of my favorite features of the MMI nav and I wanted to make sure that it also displays in the VC. It should be under the right or left VC menu where you can turn on Auto zoom etc.

I've only seen this on the TT.
Unlike most other models it doesn't have a main screen. I guess it could be possible but I would have thought someone would have found the coding by now.

OK, I tinkered with this over the weekend. As I suspected, there is no way to get upcoming turns in the virtual cockpit on the left hand side. To me, this makes no sense. The next turn is shown on the bottom of the virtual cockpit with a blue dot next to it. Audi really should have put in a left or right arrow next to it to make it more noticeable, as a dot seems like a nonsensical representation for a turn unless it wants you to turn into a black hole. They should really put in the street turn into the HUD also.

I tried to play with this over the weekend and there are no settings to change this. what I do have is the directions shown on the top right of the picture above, but not the next few turns listed on the left

One thing that I've noticed is the graphic in the HUD is different to the VC when approaching a turn or whatever. I find the HUD graphic easier to read (not just because it's in front of you).

Unless you zoomed into a different area of the map accidentally on the MMI, it should be basically the same area on the MMI that you see in the cockpit. At least that's how it works on mine.
On a separate note, I'm still surprised the virtual cockpit doesn't label street names for upcoming turns just like on the main MMI screen. That's a big oversight if you're on a road with a lot of intersections or off-ramps. There is a ton of wasted space on the sides if you zoom into the nav view on the cockpit, so it's not like they don't have the room.

I usually use the map on the main display and use the upcoming turns view on the virtual cockpit to get max utility.

While of the subject of the VC, can you reflect the 2D map settings on the VC ( it is adjustable either for 2D to 3D on the pop-up screen), but only 3D appears on my VC when in 2D on the display screen.
