Re: Octopus Charging and Q4 Location Settings

Thanks VC. I had previously tried before my Q4's firmware had been updated, without success. My firmware has recently been updated and I tried again, again without success. I tried to follow your advice - my system was not exactly the same, but it was similar. I will spell it out below in case it he...

Re: Software Update

This talk of software updates is all very exciting but I have still heard nothing from the dealer. I bought my Q4 eTron - 40 in October 2021. Apart from the daily irritation of it not recognising me as a key user, I have found a new problem. I have just changed energy supplier to Octopus because the...

Re: Software Update

I regret this will not tell you much you don't already know. Following my post above - 13th December - and a less than helpful email from my Audi Partner (don't laugh) I phoned the Audi Connect Service Desk (0800 279 2884 should you be interested in rattling their cage). I presume they put me throug...

Re: Electrical fault warning

Just had another red electrical fault warning - two days ago - when I was out in the wilds of the arm-pit of England (Purfleet) with snow approaching. The car could not be put into drive or reverse. I did what I have done before, turned everything off, got out and locked the car etc. Tried that thre...

Re: Software Update

Not certain what the background to this thread is. It may be the same as my concern which is that the MMI thinks I am a guest user and I cannot stop the Note coming up when I start the car which tells me about online services etc. I was told that the solution to this was a software upgrade - long aw...

Re: E Tron charging card £150 credit

Just registered my e-tron charging service card. At the end of the process it says to download the e-tron charging service app from the App Store. The app store doesn't list any e-tron charging service app or Audi charging service app or any other likely name that I can think of. Knowing Audi's digi...

What feature of the Q4 do you find most annoying

I hope this is a thread that others can contribute to - and that Audi might read: My nomination for the most annoying feature is the touch-sensitive controls on the left side (in the UK) of the multi-function steering wheel. Change your grip of the wheel slightly and the the screen in front of you g...

Re: Electrical fault warning

See my posts on 29th November and 4th February. I took my Q4 eTron to the dealership today. They could see that several electrical fault warnings had been logged in memory. They assured me that it was a software problem and that there was no hardware fault - that Audi were working on it and a softwa...

Re: SHELL TO INSTALL HUNDREDS OF ELECTRICAL VEHICLE CHARGING POINTS AT WAITROSE STORES BY 2025

Progress of a sort but slow chargers are next to useless unless they are at a place where you are staying for several hours, e.g. overnight. Plugging into a 22kw charger for the few minutes you shop at Waitrose will not add much to your range. 50kw will be better. Fast chargers, 150kw or greater, at...

Re: Electrical fault warning

This is an update to my post on 29th November 21. I had no further trouble until about 10 days ago when the same fault recurred and it would not clear easily as it did the first time. I eventually called Audi Roadside Assistance (AKA the AA) and, whilst waiting for them to arrive I tried again - the...
