Hi All,

I have been lurking for a couple of months familiarising myself with all the new toys on my 2013 A6 Allroad 245 which I bought at 6 months old from an Audi dealership.

Absolutely love the car but a couple of very minor niggles - after a couple of minutes from start up I get a message headed Traffic Data and saying 'Please connect your mobile phone to the car telephone kit or insert your SIM card'. I cannot work out how to get rid of the message given that I do not have the telephone kit and I use an iPhone 5 via bluetooth (which works fine) and I do not have a SIM card in the MMI due to the rSAP issues. I have the Technology Pack (WB4).

Any ideas? I guess it may be leftover setting from the previous owner.

Also the new Allroad I originally saw in the showroom had a powered tailgate and I forgot to check mine before purchase and it does not have it (too busy playing with everything else it had!). I've since learned that mine must have missed it by a month as I gather it is now standard which is a bit of an issue for Mrs Greyanglia. Would this be a bonkers retro fit or is it possible without breaking the bank as we had a Lexus RX 450h and an XC70 before both of which had it?

Great forum btw.

Pretty sure you can turn this off. Either in nav/settings or tel/settings. Will try and remember to check tomorrow
