Problems after adjusting gateway and removing component protection

[MarcoV]

Dear Audi Enthusiasts,

After buying a 2013 a3 8v sportback 5 doors I installed the following: (the audi was very bare with factory radio)
MF steering wheel, mmi mib std nav, cruise control, led rear lights, rain light sensor, pdc front and rear, gateway high, middle button bar.

Because the gateway and mmi have component protection, I waited with that first. The radio unfortunately did not work due to the CP. I put the old data from the gateway low into the gateway high. then got cruise control working with vcds (official version) and the multifunction steering wheel. Then the car kit and bluetooth worked (despite component protection).

However, after the CP was removed from both the gateway and MMI, all of this stopped working, except for the radio. Now I am unable to activate it again.

First (14-05-2021) the auto scan from when I bought the car, the 2nd (04-07-2021) auto scan is after the gateway has been changed by the gateway high and the 3rd (28-07-2021) scan is after removing CP. Who can help me?

You have gone from MIB1 Entry to MIB1 Standard. Need to have your MIB licences for navigation feature and data (if applicable), AMI etc reactivated however as you have come from an Entry unit I cannot see you have much success with this.

I have installed a gateway high with the data of the gateway low on it. I then replaced the standard radio with a mmi mib std. this all worked. only when the component protection was removed nothing worked except the radio. before everything worked except the radio.

I'm guessing that removing the component protection made mistakes? these can be rectified, right?

No mistakes. All features apart from sound work when component protection is active on the media system. Once component protection is removed sound should work. You then need to restore your feature licences / activations but, for example, if you never had navigation on your original media system then don’t expect it on retrofit as you won’t have a valid licence / activation within your vehicles design database.

Yes the car came without mmi And mf steering etcetera. I purchased a gateway high and later a mmi, steering wheel, cruise control etcetera.
I am a newby / novice, so if I am correct every component should be activated seperated in my vehicle database (can) if yes please advice me what to do

You need a specialist in order to complete the restorations for your MMI, same for the cruise control as this cannot be added via coding alone.

Any idea how restaurations have to been done? So i can ask online in The netherlands for the right specialist.

You need to find someone who has access to the VW group systems. The specialist who removed your component protection should know how to do this.
