    Ummmm that's not great...do you ignore and carry on or do something about it?

    Thats exactly my thinking Nemo... I need to go to dealer anyway once this is all done to get NV calibrated etc and I know the Master Tech well. He knows what I'm doing.

    Not sure to be honest but I have had a couple of issues with the VC, like album artwork not showing or google maps all blurred on VC (but fine on MMI and connected to Google Online)... but I wouldnt know if thats related or not... who's to say I'm the only one...

    I could say that they should raise it with Audi... on the other hand.......


    Edit: Build Date Nov 2015 I believe.

    See that's the worry how many other ones or if us have it. Thing is they know what you're up to and you have a good relationship with them...mention it and it should be raised as it's not right.

    But then if they (AUK/AG) ask how do you know what was wrong with VC / why did it come out...then it's a whole new ballgame

    Yep... But the tech there could say they removed it for troubleshooting something else (like a vc issue) and saw it. The advantage I have is I know them well and they are always cool with me.

    Will wait until this is all done and working from my side before deciding what to do. Interesting though...

    Andy was it difficult to remove the dash fascia trims as in your picture? Any tricks or tips for doing this? There is an upper and lower part to the trim - does one have to be removed before the other etc etc?

    Wasn't difficult but yes there is very much an order. Lower first then upper. Bolts to undo as well which holds trim in. You'll need this if you plan to swap out your non vc for a vc unit.


    I'll try put something together for you

    Update: NV RetroFit on hold for 2 weeks. Need a special cable to connect to Seat Side AirBags to protect from them going off while the passsenger seat is removed. Sourced one but upto 2 week delay.

    Darn It

    I'm a software engineer by day, so I regularly work with 'engineering samples' including occasionally those for use in cars. Quite often they're very close, if not identical to the final mass produced product. Sometimes it's just the software version which differs between the two. Loaded with the final version and they're essentially the finished product with a sticker. Sometimes engineering samples have extra debug ports on the board, perhaps a direct serial flashing interface so engineers can upgrade firmware without bricking a board.

    That said, I wouldn't be happy if I found one in my car. I've worked with all manner of engineering boards and some are lethal. I'd follow that up if I was you.

    Skezza, thanks for your sharing your insights... very helpful

    this is something I'll take up in due course. I also saw a couple of ebay for sale with the same sticker.

    Cheers
