Hello all,
I have just bought a 2017 A6 Ultra S-Line Black Edition 190 and having already had a veepeak OBDII dongle downloaded Carista and made a couple of changes (needle sweep, boot remote open/close from key etc)

The one thing I really want though is reliable sat nav that is up to date (and looking OEM) I was hoping to stick apple carplay in there but it looks like I have RMC so will need to get a Chinese box or maybe an android screen replacement!

For those that have updated their firmware/maps has this improved the MMI? Is it as good as Waze/Google maps?

Also my software version is RMC_EU_P16342 and nav version 8X0919884K - P38-50-16.03
Does anyone know what my options are for upgrades (apart from going to Audi and getting royally rogered!)?
Will updating my firmware and maps help or should I just go for the car play upgrade?

Cheers in advance
Si
 
I will add that I traded in a BMW 530d and I had the up to date maps and firmware and side by side it was pretty much spot on with Waze (less the warnings for rozzers!!!)
