Radio Crash

gek1tone · 04-01-2007, 02:30 PM

I just got my Q7 Last month and have about 600 miles on it Love It. But, My MMI Radio System crashes every time I start the car. It start s up and I get music from the station currently tuned for about 20 seconds and then it shuts off. When it is on there is no response from any of the selection button or the nav nob. I can load a cd into the changer but won't play then it can be ejected. The Power button won't getting started either. Also, i have triied the "RESET" Function found in the manual still nothing.

Anyone have any ideas as to what is going on? Or anyone have the same Problem? I take it to the dealer this Friday. It is just a hassle for me to go to the dealer because it is 2 hrs away.

Sounds like componant protection active.Requires unlocking via online function at your local audi dealer,or most bus system crashing because there is a loop break in optical transmission.Return to dealer suspect navagation unit optical output defective will require new unit and encoding.

It turns out after going to the dealer and leaving the car all day that they did not know what was wrong with the entire MMI system. So we had to return a week later for them to install a whole new system. Now everything is working just fine.
