Default New MMI firmware and 2018 US maps for Q5

I see A5OC.com has maps, firmware only for EU and wondering is there any other site has these for US. Dealer wants 450 plus 3 hours of labor.

FYI: many years exist EU maps versions , (2G, 3G DVD, 3G+ and 3GP), firmware and activators for same maps

If you know the upgrade process, I will send you a link to the new version of the maps US/Canada 2017/2018 . Just be careful not to destroy your MMI

That would be fantastic! I don't have Bose or B&O audio systems and think upgrade process is same for EU and US. Please PM me the links!!

Everybody wants that firmware for free. Gotta pay to play on the Q5. Don't know about your S4.
