Triple check the part number, let me know and I will get on it.

The number of my existing unit or the one i need?

And by the way the existing unit is on the left side in the trunk right? :Confused:

No idea in D4 and part number required.
Also, I thought that 3G+ systems have tv, dab and sat nav in one unit ??

I have absolutely no idea :Confused:

4e is D3 which never had 3G plus.

That said it's quite possible the radio unit from a 3g+ will work on 3g systems

I forgot it's a D3 not D4
You can get 3G+ working, but then don't you have to replace other components to 3G+ when using oem parts ??
Maybe that why kufatec is so expensive/better choice as it allows that one unit to have a 3G+ function/spec on a 3G system without the need to upgrade other components ??

I just sent them a mail now and tried to formulate it so that i might get some OEM part numbers :ROFL: :

My answer back:

Hi again,

Thanks for the fast answer, i guess this is a original Audi Q7 (or something never) radio unit with 3G+ ?
I fear that my Audi dealer will be quite hesitant to unlock this if i can't show any proof of purchase or what they call it because of these get stolen all the time.

Let's hope they give up some secrets :D

They also sell the Fistune which is dab/dab+ and a lot cheaper

Yeah i know, but then it won't appear under the Radio / Waveband menu, but as an Media device. And i don't want it that way :rolleyes:

I was of the understanding that it integrated to the mmi like factory unit.

Didn't seem like that judging by Kaufatec's answer :/
