I don't understand why it's designed like this, seems like a crap design to me. I understand the need for CP from an anti-theft perspective but most computer upgrades are cumulative or have a basic check to ensure that the upgrade is appropriate.
Audi engineers must also fall foul of this problem when having to perform updates and as such it would be better to design them properly. I’ve worked in the IT industry for over 20yrs and worked on everything from Mainframes, Mid-range, Unix…and this would never happen. Especially when blowing proms as this is doing. I think the automotive industry has a bit of catching up to do.
I have my visit to Audi today and hope to get the CP fixed quickly.
