Hi
Has anyone else notice that on existing orders their option for wireless charging has been replaced by simple Bluetooth interface? Spoke to dealer this morning and he seemed oblivious to this - but later acknowledged it and offered a charging cable as goodwill on a 70k car…

Just curious to know how you found out about it, do you have access to check your order?
I only found the same had been done to me by asking Audi directly via Twitter and then my dealer called to confirm the same. I have been offered cash compensation but its not much although I am not that bothered about it to be honest as the one in my Q5 now is crap anyway

Wow, I've got the same on order since 9th July. No updates / comms...etc... hey if they carry on de-speccing the car we'll end up with a S-line 35 2-wheel drive on steel wheels . When did you order yours out of interest to get WK47 build?
thanks

I asked about that a month ago as they were mentioned in the press release but never added as part of any trim or optional extra. So it seems they never intended to add the feature on and as you say with the chip shortage it will be a very long time before they could be added back.
In terms of retro fitting them aftermarket, I was told categorically that the wireless phonebox functionality cannot be so I'd highly doubt the more sophisticated 360 cameras will be either but just my view, no official word on that.
