Morning All

I've been looking for a new 170 Q Avant, they appear to be like hen's teeth unless you do factory order for next year. However a dealer I have been talking to has come up with 2 options which are available.

One does not have AMI which I really need/want, I have heard rumours that this can be fitted afterwards...... any suggestions???

Thanks in adavnce

It's one of the few retrofits that your dealer should be happy to do.

RE: sourcing 170 - I know what you mean, I struggled to find the 2.0tfsi from main dealers before, seems the 143 is the popular (& only) choice for most...also ended up getting better deal on new from factory via 3rd party sourcing from the same dealership!? :confused:

Anyway, re: AMI, yes, I believe this can be retro fitted, but you will be looking at more money from specialists, etc. A local specialist advertise circa £500 for this as I remember.

Not 100% sure on your question, but if both cars are allocated for delivery this year (without the 20% VAT!) and not finalised on the production sheet, then I would definately go for it as an option - even though it looks like a cd changer in the glove box just to hook up the old iPod!!!

Ami dealer fitted for generation 3 radio £400

If you have mmi 3g then you need seek the few who know how to encode 5f and add the ami connection to 5f

If you have 2g then again its £400 dealer fit plus the mmi requires updating

All audi partners supply and fit for the special offer price currently running for £400
