Does this interface come on every time I start car? Or I have to go to setting every time to enter car pla?

Will this work for 2013-2016 Audi S8?

So I installed this product yesterday. 2016 S8 with B&O system.

Removing the trim pieces and panels no big issues, just take time and care reinstalling them everything is lined up.

The two install steps IMO that are a pita is the snaking of the first wire from the HVAC controller, not bad but a pain. The second and I’m still fighting to get it finished is the reinstallation of the CD player bc of the ginormous black connector. I’ve spent 2hrs just on trying to get it right, still no luck.

Product does work, still playing with it.

I did mount the box in the glove box where the cd changer would go. I drilled a hold on the side for straight in access. You could come from behind but I wasn’t sure if the wiring would be long enough. Plus if anything is needed I don’t have to drop the glove box again.

Update following day. I finally got the MMI put back in. After 4hrs total, my epiphany came as it was 35-40 degrees out, let’s warm the wiring up to be more pliable. So I let the car warm up and blasted the heat at high for about 15min full blast. That along with every bit of strength she finally went in and completed this install after another ops check then final panels going back in.

Is there any device that will work for a D3?

Trevor Davis says:

Installed but upon test MMI display is black, nothing appears. What could I have done wrong? Car is a 2014 Audi A8.

I installed in my Audi 2015 A8L very easy to install but the the voice of gps goes away by itself time to time , music continue working with no issue ,this is happening on both options , wireless or wired , I don't know what it could be but it's annoying especially for the price that it cost

Emil Goldfarb says:

Hi, I am interested in your product for my Audi A8 2012, can you provide a demonstration of the Android Auto integration? Any limitations that we should be aware of? Is there any degradation in sound quality when listening to music?

Chester Morris says:

Dears CARSGADGET team

I would like to thank you for the great product which also deliverd very fast, I bought the CarPlay from you in few days ago, it's work perfectly in the iPhone X with IOS 14 in the MMI 3G+ .

I don't face any issue with the device, I installed by myself which is very easy but has taken longer time for arranging the wiring and cables behind the device, the installation procedure was clear and very helpfull and clear via the YouTube vedio also in the PDF download,
I'm very happy with it.
Thank you very much

Doug Pawl says:

Two questions. On my unit it came with switches 6 and 7 down. is that how its supposed to be? 2015 Audi S8. Also, i am having a terrible time getting the mmi unit back in place. Any further tips on how to get the connector to fit in that tight space? I think it's out of the way but then the unit will not slide all the way in. it stops right before the lock tabs go into place. Been at it for 8 hours now 🙁

Frank Gronwald says:

Hi. Does it work with android wirelessly?

What is this attachment number 6 for? I saw somewhere that only the number 8 should be ON

Shane Moore says:

I have a 2013 S8. Are the front and rear cams able to integrate with this module? Parking sensors?

Cahal Duval says:

Wondering if this will work for the 2015 audi S8, it looks to be the same MMI system in the A8 and the S8 but on the website it says "2009 – 2016 Audi A1,A4,A5,S4,S5,A6,A7,A8,Q3,Q5,Q7". Will this work for my car?

Jesus Gordon says:
