    Hi,
    I can't be the only one who finds this annoying.

    I like to drive with the info from the computer 1 showing in the driver info screen, however I've noticed that when someone calls me this changes to the phone menu (not nessesarily a problem), but when the call ends it doesn't return to the computer 1 screen which means that I need to press the mode button on the steering wheel a few times to get it back.

    It's obviously not a huge issue but it is annoying. Why can't the car just go back to the way it was before the call? or maybe there's a setting somewhere that makes it do this?

    Hi Rich,
    I'm sure mine does go back to the info screen when the call ends and i've not done anything to it thats how it came out or the box. Have you phone prep high or low ?? mines low.

    yep i know what you mean...same for if you answer or dial a number. It doesn't leave the phone book. Mostly annoying when someone's called you. It stays on the phone book rather than returning to the DIS like speed, comp/trip stats.

    Guess you gotta keep your finger near the 'mode' button

    If you receive a call it goes back to the MMI previous display. if you dial is does not! Well that is what happens in my A5 & happened in my S3

    Yep that's exactly it. Regardless of whether I've dialled, or recieved a call the DIS does not revert back to the setting that were showing pre-call.

    This is what I wish it would do. But it doesn't

    Very strange, so the only other person that has this issue is tlionhart and he's got an A3 not an A4

    Tested it again on the way home tonight and it's definintely doing it.
