New iOS update allows for a few new features in CarPlay

Hi all,

I got into my car today drove to work and nothing unusual happened until when I left work I got a check engine light, I ran the code and it said all 4 of my cylinders are misfiring on a 17 Audi S3 with 32k miles. I erased the code but the cars not shifting the same and it’s kinda jerky. Has this happened to anyone before?

I got this cd which is for audio and it is still grayed out. Songs are burned to cd using windows media player and are in mp3 format

I’ve been trying to figure out how to set up my lock screen widget for the myAudi app for like a week now. When it’s on the home screen, it gives you the option to click on it and select the car you want, making it functional. When it’s on the lock screen, the widgets are unclickable, therefore just making it useless. As you can see the myBMW app is displaying my fuel level perfectly. Is there something I’m missing or does the app just suck?

Here is a during and after picture of an S5 evaporator job I did recently. Happy to answer any questions

So I have been having that awful putrid mildew smell on startup with the AC. It only started maybe a month ago?? Known issue with many Audis and VW it seems. Leaves under cowl been cleaned and Fridgiey Fresh was sprayed in vents smell came back in 3 days 🤬 my guess is it’s in AC lines or evaporator. It’s been so humid all summer. Does this issue go away in Winter when heat is blasting all winter or does it stay forever once it’s started? I’m highly allergic to mold. Dealer says come back they’ve already ripped me for money and it did nothing. I don’t trust this particular dealer AT ALLL ! Please help advice needed asap ! Thank you

Hi guys, I got my Audi A7 C7.5 a year ago and absolutely loved it. I tuned it to stage 2 dual pulley 4 month ago but didn't actually abuse it much but very enjoying so far. I love this car, beautiful, powerful, enjoyable so I wanted to hear your advice about how to maintain it nicely and I wish it'll runs forever. It has 85k miles on it right now and I drove about 7k in the past year, zero issues everything is in good shape. So I think these should be the question to ask:

1. What can be some common parts failure I might be facing in the future? Should I just replace it before it breaks down?

2. While we're talking about maintenance, usually referred to oil change, radiator fluid, coolant fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, is there some recommendations about what maintenance I should do further to keep the car running well?

3. I would love to hear more insights or anything you would love to mention

Thanks!

Hi all, Just bought a 2011 A3 and it has AVI lead and cradle for the original iPod (!) in the glove box and I’m wanting to upgrade it. There’s no usb in the car, just a cigarette lighter (which doesn’t appear to be able manage a plug in dash cam without switching off every 15 seconds) so not sure where to start.

I’ve contacted some eBay sellers and the best response I had was attached. Basically, because I have the nav+ system installed (which I again suspect hasn’t ever been updated from 2011 but I’ll never use as use Waze mostly) then most replacement cables I’ve seen won’t work.

I can connect my iPhone to the Bluetooth in the stereo for hands free calls but nothing else. Husband suggested a carpuride type tablet thing but unsure that’ll work.

Question is- what’s the best/cheapest/easiest way to upgrade an outdated audio system? I’m hoping others have had the same dilemma and can suggest something.

Thanks much.

Hypothetical question, imagine you had an 2024 Audi A8 and could travel back through time, would all the systems such as satellite navigation, electrical systems like collision avoidance, parking sensors and all other fancy gadgets, would they still work?

Title says it all. As I was driving my daughter to school I noticed that the redline was like 5500 and thought, that don’t seem right. A few minutes later, it normalized. Who woulda thunk?

Hi so I bought my A5 second hand months ago but only recently did I get a phone that supports wireless charging. I have the Audi phone box but it doesn't charge my phone. Also, Android Auto only works with a wired connection...anybody have any idea what could be the issue cos Audi wanna charge me £98 just to look at it!

Check engine light on - had it diagnosed and it needs both oxygen sensors replaced.

Wondering what range of cost to fix is? I have two prices but there is a wide swing in the numbers so curious if anyone here has had experience in having to replace?

i recently got a 2018 audi A3 sportback and everywhere im reading it should have CarPlay but whenever i plug in my iphone into the charging port and im connected via bluetooth with the car i still cant access carplay. does it just not have it?

or is it cause i need a subscription from MyAudi for that?

i have tried holding down the speaking button but it just opens siri on my phone.

anyone know if my car has it or how i can enable it?

Brought a damaged RS6. Was crashed , and the steering wheel is not stock. The badge originally said “S-line” any idea what model this is from.

I have a 2018 Audi A5 hatchback that got the eventual water pump failure. I’ve been wrenching on Cars forever, and I don’t wanna sound crazy, but I can’t get the water pump cover off for the belt area. I’ve done everything you can imagine. It seems like it doesn’t wanna come off, I’m assuming I’m missing a boat somewhere? Anyone know any tips or tricks?

Hey guys, looking to have some help here - I just bought a new 2024 RSQ8 (7 miles on the odo) and can't seem to connect my phone to the car wirelessly for android auto. Initially the car was in flight mode (found out online thru symptoms, and then had dealership disable flight mode, lol) and now that it has been fixed, I'm unable to set up wireless android auto in the same way I can connect with the same phone in our other cars. It works when plugged into the USB-C ports in the center console of the car, but wirelessly it just stays greyed out forever. I've clicked through basically every setting I can find, made sure both phone and car and everything in between is updated, made sure to attempt to reconnect a bunch of times, but I'm still not having any luck. Anyone else run into this problem? If so, any guidance on what to do here? The car itself seems to suggest it has wireless android auto, the phone works with our Camaro and BMW, and my phone is a s24 ultra so I would think that I have all the pre-requisites met to make this work but just not having any luck.
