Good news your AMI works!

Perhaps to get the fruit tech to work you need the L cable? again from EPC I viewed L was not dropped as part and replaced by K for the MMI 2 AMI, did VAG dealer shed any light to what cable to use?

I've ordered an 'L' version. Dealer said that K is an updated part to L. However in theory, only for models from 2008 onwards. He admitted that it didn't actually make sense since its an updated part and yet not necessarily compatible, which defeats the object.

I'll post when the lead arrives.

It's just odd that even though t has all of the updates, it can't use the newer lead with an i-anything.

Received L version of lead, plugged in, worked straight away. However only with an early iPod, since obviously that's what it was for. It's very odd that given its the latest software version, that it won't deal with the later lead. I think I'm going to do as I reported earlier and buy a portable hard drive and put my whole music collection on there in MP3 format. Hopefully that would work.

I also have someone coming round with a VCDS to turn on the eject button for my sat nav, since it has the original disc in it as it wasn't turned on at PDi, so I may just ask him to check that everything is at it should be. I might also ask him to turn on the hidden menu if I can find what settings it needs.

Thanks for all of your help.

Glad to hear it's working with L , but how nutty about the K lead.

Guys, I would like to ask you. I have AMI in my A6 C6.

How to flash AMI with the latest FW, when it just doesnt appear under SW update menu? It is stuck with some kind of strange flash menu loop, it disturbs even my radio (every few seconds, whole radio or CD stops playing for 1 sec, then continues) whole MMi is slowed down and when i try to switch to ami, it shows that it is stuck in some kind of update loop, showing "software being updated, update interrupted" even if there is nothing connected. When I put real AMI flash on USB, it shows incompatible software. I managed to discover that this message shows up because internal SW is too old. BUT with common update CDs 5150 or 5570 its not in the possible flashable units under the flash selection menu... Also I put GND to pin 4 according to web hints with no change... still it shows up in MMI, it shows up in engineering menu, but is missing in flash units-selection menu and also cannot be reached by VAG...
Any idea how to fix this? it is 4E0035785 HW09 SW0170 with SW-Date 15.08.06

and why did this happened?? My car was robbed, AMI stolen, I bought this one from Poland and... here we are
