A8 MMI Update - A Walkthrough
Having recently added an AMI to my A8 I needed to complete an update to the MMI as the version on my car (2210) did not support the AMI.
I thought it may be useful to add a walkthrough as info across the net is somewhat fragmented. It took me approx 1.5 hrs to complete from start to finish. Hope somebody finds it useful and if anybody finds any omissions let me know and I'll update the original. Upgrading_Your_Audi_A8_MMI_to_the_latest_version.p df Sorry it's a bit of a long winded process to download but I'll try and find somewhere else to get it hosted

Godders,
Thanks for the excellent write up. I have used the power of the mighty Uber Librarian and edited your post after uploading the PDF to the forum library. It will be a bit easier now.  Added it to the sticky as well.

If you have the MP3 CD changer, then fitting AMI doesn't do a whole lot I suppose, but it does fix bugs in the Bluetooth and various other bits n bobs.

Thanks Psyche,
That's about what I thought however my Bluetooth works with my IPhone or Ericcson nae bother - all the bits I need work including putting someone's name and telling the Nav to take you there. Doesn't half make you lazy!
