I have had my car for a few weeks now but been away on holiday so not had much chance to use it. One thing has been annoying me about the USB ports and wondered if everyone had the same functionality or lack of it.
So if I plug my IPhone into USB Port 1, that’s the one under the AC control on the 2018 model. Apple CarPlay works fine, Media player works fine and on playlists I get the full list of songs in the playlist.
If I plug into USB Port 2 thats in the phone box under the armrest then the CarPlay still works okay but I don’t get full track lists on playlists or albums through the Audi MMI player, it just shows single tracks and every now and again when the player starts the next track the info on the display doesn’t change. The system plays the next track but still displays name etc of the last track. Also noticed I don’t get album art in the virtual cockpit either from this port.
Is this normal as it’s a pain to have wires trailing across the dash when there is a port under the armrest.
I have the Tech Pack fitted but don’t think that should make a difference.
