Audi A3 (2004) Symphony II to Symphony II+

[xandertarr]

Hi, I wonder if anyone could provide some advice. I have bought a Audi A3 54-plate which has the Symphony II head unit (6-cd changer with tape deck), however the car was sold as having an MP3 head unit.

I've been talking to the Audi garage where I bought it from to see what they can arrange, and after 8-weeks the only option they came up with was replacing it with the Symphony II+ unit.

However, I received a call from the garage today to say that they couldn't fit the Symphony II+ unit; apparently the connectors will not fit.

Does anyone know if it is possible to replace the Symphony II with the II+ with Audi official parts (thats all they will use). I'm sure I read that there was a converter cable, but I can't find where I read this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the response, seems a little complicated. The garage say they will only use official Audi lead, do you know if they are available?

Alternatively, if I just bought the Symphony II+ and purchased the leads would I only need to change the leads that connect to the unit?

Looking through another other pages I see these items:

Many Thanks!

There won't be an official Audi lead to convert from the old to new units.

They would have no need to ever provide such a thing, as they would normally only ever replace like with like units under warranty.
